Compliance Reporting and Sailing through the Covid-19 pandemic

Governments across the globe are focussed on fighting a common enemy, the novel coronavirus that has caused a pandemic.  With several countries in lockdown, and businesses unable to operate as usual there’s wave of uncertainty causing worry to people regarding the future of their businesses and compliances.

To help companies in difficult times as these, governments and regulatory bodies have announced several compliance extensions and relaxations.

In India, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) has released updates and filing extensions enabling companies to adhere to compliance requirements without the need to pay penalty for delays.

Here is a List summarising

The various MCA notifications outline the announced relaxations and extensions.
