Forms by Type of Shift
| Type of Change | Forms |
|---|---|
| Within same city/ROC | Board resolution + INC-22 (within 30 days) |
| Outside city, same ROC/state | Special resolution + MGT-14 + INC-22 |
| One ROC to another (same state) | INC-23 (Regional Director approval) + INC-28 + INC-22 |
| One state to another | Special resolution + INC-23 (RD approval) + INC-28 + INC-22 + MoA change |
Note: INC-22 must be filed within 30 days of the change once approved. A shift across states or ROCs needs Regional Director approval and is more involved — plan timelines accordingly. Update GST, PAN-linked records, bank and licenses to the new address.
What to Watch
Late INC-22 attracts ₹100/day late fee.
RD approval is mandatory before the shift takes effect.
Utility bill must be recent and match the NOC and agreement.
