Why ADT-1 Matters

Auditor appointment is not complete until the ROC intimation is handled properly.

Form ADT-1 records the auditor’s appointment with the Registrar of Companies. It is commonly filed after the first auditor appointment, annual general meeting appointment, re-appointment, casual vacancy appointment or change of auditor, depending on the company’s situation.

📅

Due Date Managed

ADT-1 is generally filed within 15 days from the date of auditor appointment, so date tracking is critical.

🧾

Clean ROC Record

The filing updates MCA records with auditor details, appointment period and supporting documents.

Auditor Consent

Written consent and eligibility certificate from auditor are prepared before filing.

🏢

All Companies

Private limited, public limited, Section 8, OPC and other companies may need ADT-1 filing when applicable.

⚠️

Late Fee Avoidance

Missing the timeline can lead to additional MCA fees and unnecessary compliance gaps.

📚

Audit Trail

Board minutes, AGM minutes, consent and certificate create a clean audit trail for future due diligence.
