Change in Registered Office (Company)
Your trusted partner for business relocation — ensuring seamless address change with full compliance under MCA regulations.
Overview
The Registered Office of a company is its official address registered with the Registrar of Companies (RoC), where all statutory communications and legal notices are received. A Change in Registered Office is required when a company shifts its place of business due to expansion, operational convenience, or strategic relocation.
The complexity of this process depends on the distance of the move: shifting within the same city is simple, whereas moving to a different ROC jurisdiction or shifting from one state to another (Interstate) requires higher-level approvals from the Regional Director (RD) and modifications to the Memorandum of Association.
