Change Address
Change Your Company’s Registered Office with NR Filing
A company’s registered office is its official, legally recognized address where all statutory communications and notices from the Registrar of Companies (ROC) are sent. It’s essential for legal identity and must be mentioned in the Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Articles of Association (AOA).
Whether you’re shifting due to expansion, strategic relocation, or cost-efficiency, altering your registered office address involves clear procedures under the Companies Act, 2013 and Companies (Incorporation) Rules, 2014. The steps and compliance obligations depend on the type of relocation—within the same city, another city, or a different state.
With NR Filing, this transition is simple, compliant, and stress-free.
