Hi, have a query about application to ROC for condonation of delay of more than 300 days in annual filing ..
can anyone help me with the required documentation? what is penalty to be given by ROC? any idea?
If you are filing Form 23AC, 23ACA and 20B, then you do not need to go for condonation. You will be allowed to file forms without condonation even if they are filed after 300 days.

3. **Affidavit**: An affidavit stating the reasons for the delay and confirming the correctness of the information provided.
4. **Additional Documents**: Any other documents that support your case, such as correspondence with ROC, proof of attempts to comply earlier, etc.
### Format of Application (Form CG-1):
- **Form CG-1**: This form is prescribed under the Companies (Registration Offices and Fees) Rules, 2014. It includes sections where you need to fill in details such as the name of the company, details of the delay, reasons for delay, etc.
- You can download Form CG-1 from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) website or from the ROC website of your region.
