Who should check eligibility now?
If your company has delayed ROC filings, inactive status issues, strike-off plans, or investor due diligence pressure, this window can be commercially significant.
Dormant or inactive companies
Companies planning dormancy or strike-off should first assess pending forms and clean-up cost before the scheme period ends.
Directors facing compliance risk
Multiple years of default may create governance, DIN and enforcement concerns. A status check gives clarity before penalties escalate.
Startups preparing for funding
Investors expect clean statutory records. CCFS 2026 can help remove old ROC filing gaps before due diligence.
NRI-owned Indian companies
Indian companies managed from abroad often miss recurring filings. This is a practical window to regularise records.
CA/CS firms with defaulting clients
Professionals can use the window for client clean-up drives and coordinate execution support where needed.

Common questions
CCFS 2026 FAQs
What is CCFS 2026?
CCFS 2026 refers to the Companies Compliance Facilitation Scheme, 2026, introduced as a limited-period compliance relief scheme for eligible companies to regularise specified pending MCA filings.
How much can a company save?
Savings depend on eligible forms, number of default days, company status and MCA calculation. For annual filings, the scheme is generally positioned around paying only a fraction of normal accumulated additional fees.
