    MGT-14 Filing.

    Section 117 requires certain resolutions and agreements to be filed with the ROC in Form MGT-14 within 30 days of being passed. These include every special resolution, approvals of borrowing and asset-sale powers under section 180, terms of appointment of a managing director and, for public companies, specified board resolutions. We identify what needs filing, prepare certified copies and file on time.

    How it works

    MGT-14 Filing, step by step.

    Typical timeline

    Typically 2–3 working days after the signed resolutions are available, within the statutory limit of 30 days from the date the resolution was passed.

    1. 1

      Filing check

      We review the resolutions passed and identify those covered by section 117(3), applying the exemption for board resolutions of private companies.

    2. 2

      Document preparation

      We prepare certified true copies of the resolutions, the explanatory statement and, where altered, the updated memorandum or articles.

    3. 3

      Form filing

      We complete MGT-14 with the meeting details, attach the documents and file it with the authorised signatory's digital signature.

    4. 4

      Linked forms

      Where the resolution leads to another filing, such as INC-24, INC-27, SH-7 or STK-2, we sequence it so the MGT-14 reference is ready.

    Before we start

    What we need from you.

    Don't have everything yet? We send a short checklist after the first call and work with what you have.

    • Certified copy of each resolution
    • Notice of the meeting with explanatory statement
    • Altered memorandum or articles, if applicable
    • Scrutiniser's report, for postal ballots or polls
    • Digital signature of a director or the company secretary
    How fees work

    The fee depends on your situation. After a short call, the partner who will do the work tells you what's involved and gives you a fixed fee in writing — before any work begins.

    • Government fees and statutory charges are billed at actuals.
    • When you pay — upfront, in stages or on completion — is agreed in writing with the fee.
    FAQs

    Questions about MGT-14 Filing.

    No. Private companies are exempt from filing board resolutions under section 179(3). They still file special resolutions and the other items listed in section 117(3).
