Quick answer

The ROC / MCA module in Easedesk ERP lets you manage MCA compliance. It is built India-first with director kyc (dir-3), mgt-7 + aoc-4, and board meeting tracker — all in one place, designed for Indian SMEs. Data flows automatically to and from other Easedesk modules, GST returns are auto-populated, and access is governed by role-based permissions.

What is the ROC / MCA module?

Easedesk's ROC / MCA module manages annual Registrar of Companies filings for Indian private and public limited companies — director KYC, annual return MGT-7, financial statements AOC-4, board meetings, charge registration, and event-based filings.

It is included in every Easedesk subscription (subject to plan availability) and works out-of-the-box with sensible Indian defaults. Whether you're a 10-person startup or a 500-person enterprise, the ROC / MCA module scales without changing how you log in or where your data lives.

Unlike standalone roc / mca tools, Easedesk's ROC / MCA module is part of a connected ERP — data flows automatically between modules (your invoice posts to accounting, your payroll updates statutory liabilities) so you never re-key the same number twice.

Why ROC / MCA matters for Indian businesses

Covers Companies Act 2013 filings for Pvt Ltd, OPC, LLP and Public Ltd. Late-filing penalty ₹100/day with no upper limit. DSC required for all uploads via MCA21 portal.

For Indian GST and accounting compliance, the regulatory landscape changes every few months — GST rate revisions, new TDS sections, fresh EPFO circulars. Easedesk's product team monitors gazette notifications and pushes updates so your ROC / MCA module always reflects the current law without you having to lift a finger.

Key features and capabilities

The ROC / MCA module in Easedesk ships with the following capabilities out of the box:

  • Director KYC (DIR-3)

Who should use the ROC / MCA module?

Why teams choose Easedesk for ROC / MCA

Compared to standalone tools, point solutions and legacy desktop software, Easedesk's ROC / MCA module gives you:

  • MCA-portal ready
  • Avoid ₹100/day penalties
  • Director compliance dashboard

Permissions and access control

Access to the ROC / MCA module is governed by Easedesk's role-based access control (RBAC). By default, the Owner role has full access (wildcard permissions). The predefined roles that include ROC / MCA access are typically Admin, Accountant, and the Viewer role (which gets read-only access).

Owners can edit any predefined role's permissions, or create new custom roles, in Settings → Users & Roles. Permissions are checked at the API level on every request — so even if a user finds a hidden URL, they cannot bypass the role gates.

For sensitive operations like delete, approve and export, you can require an extra-step approval workflow — see the Approvals module documentation.
