About the firm

A compliance partner, not a filing vendor.

RKT & Associates was founded in 2009 on a straightforward idea: a company secretary should understand the business before advising on the statute. We work closely enough with our clients to know their cap table, their board dynamics and where the next transaction is likely to come from.

That shows up in the work. Filings go out ahead of the due date, not on it. Minutes are drafted while the meeting is fresh. And when a term sheet or a notice arrives, you get a clear recommendation the same day — not a list of sections to interpret yourself.

“Good governance is quiet. You notice it only when it is missing.”

— Founding partner, ACS & LLB · Member, Institute of Company Secretaries of India

01

Deadline discipline

Every mandate runs on a shared compliance calendar with reminders that start well before the statutory due date.

02

One point of contact

A named company secretary owns your file. You never re-explain your cap table to a new person.

03

Plain-language advice

Opinions arrive as a recommendation and its reasoning — not a wall of sections you still have to decode.

04

Documentation that survives audit

Registers, minutes and filings are maintained so a due-diligence request is a download, not a scramble.

What we do

Every obligation the Companies Act places on you.

Eight practice areas, one team. Take the whole compliance function off your desk, or bring us in for a single mandate.

  • AOC-4, MGT-7 & DIR-3 KYC
  • Event-based e-forms
  • Statutory register upkeep

Secretarial Audit

Independent MR-3 audits and health checks that surface gaps before a regulator, investor or acquirer does.

FEMA & RBI Compliance

Cross-border filings done on time, from inbound investment reporting to overseas remittance documentation.

  • Net-worth and share certificates

Not sure which of these you need? Ask us on a 30-minute call — there is no charge for the first conversation.

03

Execution

Filings, drafting and board support delivered against agreed dates, with status visible throughout.

04

Ongoing review

Quarterly check-ins to catch changes in law, shareholding or structure before they become notices.

Questions

The things people ask us first.

We are the compliance function for your company — incorporation, every filing the Registrar of Companies expects, board and general meeting process, statutory registers, and certifications that only a practising CS can sign.

Yes. A large share of our work is first-time founders — incorporation, ESOP pool creation, funding-round documentation and the filings that follow a share allotment.

Retainers for ongoing annual compliance, and fixed fees for defined mandates such as incorporation, an allotment or a secretarial audit. You get the number in writing before we begin.

Regularly. We start with a status search, quantify the additional fees and penalties, then file in the order that limits exposure.

Most filings are electronic, so we serve clients across India and overseas groups with Indian subsidiaries. Meetings happen over video unless a physical presence is required.
