CIN, CONTACT NUMBER OF COMPANY ALREADY AVAILABLE IN MCA MASTER DATA DOES NOT OFFER IMMUNE IF THESE DETAILS ARE ABSENT IN COMPANY LETTER HEAD & BOARDS REPORT.
ROC MUMBAI
VS OM SHYAMJI FOODS PVT. LTD.
The fact that a company’s **CIN,
contact number and other statutory details are available on the MCA Master Data
does not provide immunity from the statutory requirement to disclose such
particulars on the company’s letterhead and Board’s Report, wherever prescribed
under the Companies Act, 2013.
ROC alleged that CIN, contact
number and email absent from FY 2020-21
in Board Report and in letterhead.
Company argued that the information
was already available in MCA master data.
ROC rejected that defense:
availability on MCA records does not substitute for statutory disclosure on the
company letterhead or board report document itself.
KEY TAKEAWAY:
Availability of information on the MCA portal ≠ compliance
with the statutory disclosure requirement.
A company must ensure that all mandatory particulars are
properly disclosed in the documents prescribed under the Companies Act, 2013.
