Private Limited Company Closure

 


Private Limited Company Closure in India

Legally Close Your Inactive or Unwanted Private Limited Company with Expert Guidance


Overview

A Private Limited Company that is inactive, non-operational, or no longer required can be officially closed through a legal process governed by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Whether due to business failure, restructuring, or compliance costs, SSA Tax offers comprehensive assistance in company closure or strike-off under the Companies Act, 2013.


Why Close a Private Limited Company?

  • Discontinuation of business operations

  • Avoid ongoing compliance and penalties

  • No active financial transactions or liabilities

  • Business conversion or merger

  • Legal requirement to strike off dormant companies


Methods of Company Closure

1. Fast Track Exit (FTE) – Strike Off (Section 248 of Companies Act)

Applicable when:

  • No operation for last 2 years, or

  • Not commenced business within 1 year of incorporation

For companies with assets/liabilities, or where settlement with creditors is required.
