If the company fails to file Form 20A with the ROC, the company will be fined 50,000 rupees, and each officer will be fined Rs. 1,000 rupees per day until the default is corrected, up to a maximum of Rs. 1,00,000 rupees.

Non-compliance with the Section could result in the Company being struck out under Section 248 of the Companies Act, 2013.

If a company files a form after the 180-day period has passed, it must first file Form INC-28 for a delay condonation (in the filing of Form INC-20A) and then pay the penalties stated in the Act before proceeding with the filing of Form INC-20 A with additional fees (as may be applicable)
