Overview
A company’s registered office is its official address recorded with the Registrar of Companies (ROC). It is where all official communications and notices from government authorities are sent. However, as businesses grow, expand operations, or undergo restructuring, they may need to shift their registered office from one state to another. This relocation is a significant corporate decision and must comply with the procedures laid down under the Companies Act, 2013.
Shifting the registered office from one state to another is often done for strategic reasons—such as proximity to clients, better infrastructure, lower costs, or access to new markets. It could also be for administrative convenience or to align with the promoter’s base of operations. However, such a shift involves not just physical relocation but also a legal process that includes approval from shareholders, creditors, and the Regional Director (RD).
This process requires careful compliance, including alteration of the company’s Memorandum of Association (MOA), filing of prescribed forms, publication of notices, and obtaining necessary approvals. Only after the RD’s confirmation can the company update its registered office details with the ROC of the new state.
