The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) has issued an important notice to all companies and stakeholders regarding the filing of Form AOC-4 on the MCA V3 portal. The ministry informed that some users may face problems while pre-filling details of “Trade Payables” and “Other Income” from previous filings in the updated version of the form.
According to the MCA, this issue has arisen because these two fields have been restructured in the V3 portal. Earlier, “Trade Payables” and “Other Income” were reported as single fields in the financial statement form. In the latest version, these have now been divided into multiple sub-sections to ensure a more detailed and accurate disclosure of financial information.

To address this, the ministry has advised all companies and professionals to manually enter the relevant values in the correct fields while filling Form AOC-4. The notice clarified that the pre-fill option will not automatically capture these figures from previous filings, and manual input is required to complete the filing correctly.

Form AOC-4 is a key compliance document that companies registered under the Companies Act must file every year to submit their financial statements to the MCA.
It includes important financial details such as revenue, expenses, assets, liabilities, and other related information. Delays or errors in filing can lead to penalties or compliance issues, making this update significant for company secretaries, chartered accountants, and corporate compliance teams.
If a company holds its AGM on September 30, 2025, the due date for AOC-4 filing would be October 29, 2025.
