The Ministry of Corporate Affairs
(MCA) in response to the representations from various stakeholders launched the
FRESH START SCHEME through the
circular dated 30th March, 2020.
As per
this scheme, all the defaulting companies would get an opportunity to
file belated documents (such as Annual Return, Financial Statements etc ) on
the MCA21 Electronic registry without being subject to a higher additional fees
on account of any delay.
But this scheme does not solve the purpose of filing belated
charge related documents.
Therefore, the stakeholders once again
made the representations to MCA to
provide relaxations with regard to charge related documents as well as this are
tough time in COVID 19. Then, MCA vide a circular dated 17th June ,
2020 come up with a scheme for
relaxation of time for filing forms related to creation or modification of
charges under the Companies Act,2013.
