MCA CCFS-2026: 90% Waiver on ROC Late Filing Fees – Big Relief for Companies

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) has introduced the Companies Compliance Facilitation Scheme, 2026 (CCFS-2026), offering a major compliance relief to companies with pending ROC filings. Under this scheme, companies can complete overdue filings with a 90% waiver on additional filing fees (late penalties).

This is a golden opportunity for companies to regularize their compliance status and avoid heavy penalties.

What is CCFS-2026?

CCFS-2026 is a special compliance scheme launched by MCA to encourage defaulting companies to complete pending statutory filings under the Companies Act.

The scheme allows companies to file overdue annual returns and financial statements by paying only a small portion of the additional fees.

Scheme Validity

  • Start Date: 15 April 2026
  • Last Date: 15 July 2026

Companies must complete eligible filings within this period to avail the benefit of reduced additional fees.

Key Benefit of the Scheme

✅ 90% Waiver on Additional Fees

Normally, delayed ROC filings attract substantial late filing penalties. Under CCFS-2026:

  • Only 10% of additional fees need to be paid
  • Remaining 90% additional fees are waived

This can help companies save a significant amount in ROC penalties.

Eligible ROC Filings

The scheme covers pending filings such as:

  • Annual Return
  • Financial Statements
  • Other eligible MCA e-Forms

Who Should Avail This Scheme?

CCFS-2026 is beneficial for:

  • Private Limited Companies
  • OPCs (One Person Companies)
  • Small Companies
  • Startups
  • Inactive companies with pending filings
  • Companies facing ROC non-compliance issues

Advantages of Filing Under CCFS-2026

✔ Save Heavy Penalties

Companies can clear old ROC compliances at a much lower cost.

✔ Improve Compliance Status

Updated filings help maintain a clean company record on the MCA portal.

✔ Avoid Legal Action

Pending ROC filings may lead to notices, penalties, or prosecution. This scheme helps reduce such risks.

✔ Better Business Credibility

A compliant company gains more trust from banks, investors, and clients.

Important Reminder

The scheme is available only till 15 July 2026. After that, normal additional fees and legal consequences may apply again.

Companies should review all pending ROC compliances and complete filings before the deadline.
