Consequences of Non-Filing of ADT-1
1. Mandatory Filing Requirement
- ADT-1 must be filed with the MCA within 15 days of the board meeting in which an auditor is appointed, re-appointed, or resigned. Non-filing is considered a violation of the Companies Act, 2013.
2. Penalty for Company
- If ADT-1 is not filed on time, the company may face a fine of ₹1,00,000.
- In addition, a continuing fine of ₹5,000 per day may be levied until the default is rectified.
3. Penalty for Officer-in-Default
- Every officer of the company responsible for filing ADT-1 (usually the Company Secretary, Director, or Compliance Officer) is liable for a penalty of ₹25,000.
4. Legal Implications
- Non-filing can lead to MCA notices, scrutiny, or inspection, which may complicate other ROC filings and future audits.
5. Impact on Auditor Appointment
- If ADT-1 is not filed, the auditor’s appointment or resignation is not legally recognized, which may cause compliance issues in the company’s annual filings and audits.
6. Rectification Process
- Even if delayed, ADT-1 can still be filed online with MCA. Filing late attracts late fees, but it ensures legal compliance and avoids prolonged penalties.
