What is Registered Office Change?
Every company registered under the Companies Act, 2013 must maintain a registered office — the official address for all legal, regulatory, and statutory communications. Under Section 12 of the Companies Act, the registered office must be a physical location capable of receiving notices.
When a company changes its registered office address — whether within the same city, to a different city in the same state, or to a new state — it must file Form INC-22 with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) within 30 days of the board resolution.
For inter-state relocation, the process is more complex — requiring Form INC-23, a special shareholder resolution, and approval from the Regional Director (NCLT), along with mandatory newspaper publications.
Important: Failure to file INC-22 within 30 days attracts ₹1,000/day penalty. All notices to wrong address can result in missed compliance deadlines.
Who Needs Registered Office Change?
Any company that has moved, is planning to move, or has an incorrect address on MCA records must file INC-22.
Same-City Relocation
Companies moving to new premises within the same city or locality.
City-to-City Move
Companies shifting registered office from one city to another within same state.
Inter-State Relocation
Companies relocating to a different state — requires NCLT Regional Director approval.
Startups to Office
Startups moving from founder's home address to a dedicated commercial office space.
Lease Expiry
Companies changing office due to lease expiry, termination, or landlord disputes.
Strategic Relocation
Companies relocating for business expansion, client proximity, or hub advantages.

Companies with inaccurate or outdated address on MCA master data needing correction.
Key Benefits of Filing INC-22
Updating your registered office with MCA carries immediate compliance, legal, and operational advantages.
Legal Address Updated
All MCA records and company master data reflect your current registered address.
MCA Compliance Maintained
Full compliance with Companies Act 2013 Section 12 on registered office requirements.
Bank Address Sync
Enables bank account address update with board resolution and new address proof.
GST Address Update Path
ROC change creates the basis for GST address change via separate Form REG-14 filing.
Vendor & Client Credibility
Updated registered address enhances trust with vendors, clients, and financial institutions.
No Missed Notices
Legal and regulatory notices reach you at the correct address — zero compliance risk.
New State Operations
State change enables legal business operations and regulatory registrations in the new state.
Accurate Regulatory Records
Accurate records at ROC at all times — eliminates discrepancies across PAN, GST, and MCA.
8-Step INC-22 Filing Process
A systematic process ensuring 100% compliance with Companies Act requirements for registered office change.
Board Resolution Approving New Address
Board of Directors passes a resolution approving the change of registered office and authorising the filing of INC-22.
Obtain Utility Bill of New Address
Collect electricity, water, or gas bill of the new address — must be within the last 2 months from the date of filing.
Get NOC from Property Owner
If the property is rented, obtain a written No Objection Certificate from the landlord permitting use as registered office.
File INC-22 Within 30 Days
File Form INC-22 on MCA portal within 30 days of the board resolution. Delay attracts ₹1,000/day penalty on the company and officers.
ROC Verification of Documents
The Registrar of Companies verifies the submitted documents — utility bill, NOC, board resolution, and address proof.
MCA Master Data Updated
On approval, MCA updates the company master data with the new registered office address across all records.
GST Address Change (Separate)
File Form GST REG-14 on the GST portal separately to update GST registered address — ROC and GST are independent systems.
Bank Account Address Update
Notify your bank of the new address with board resolution and new address proof. Bank updates internally per their process.
Documents Required for INC-22 Filing
Ensure all documents are ready before initiating the filing to avoid ROC deficiency notices.
Utility Bill Validity is Critical
The utility bill (electricity/water/gas) must be dated within the last 2 months from the date of INC-22 filing. An expired bill is the most common reason for ROC deficiency notices — we verify this before submission.
