There is a company who has not filed a return with ROC since incorporation i.e 1985 and the current status being displayed on the ROC website is Active.
Can the company go with Easy Exit Scheme 2011 and write off the name from ROC?

Information given by you is not sufficient to frame a correct observation on the issue. So kly refer the general circular in http://www.mca.gov.in/Ministry/latestnews/CircularEES_3dec2010.pdf for a proper understanding about the scheme.

I have referred the circular but its not written anywhere if the company has filed not a single return is eligible for write off or not.

Easy exit scheme 2011 is open to defunct companies only. Non-filing for returns alone will be make the company defuct.
