Record Keeping

Statutory Registers & Minutes

Your trusted partner for corporate record-keeping — ensuring accurate maintenance of statutory registers and minutes in compliance with MCA regulations.

Overview

Every company in India is required to maintain statutory registers and minutes of meetings as a core part of its ongoing compliance obligations. Governed by the Companies Act, 2013 and the Secretarial Standards (SS-1 & SS-2) issued by the ICSI, these records serve as the official evidence of a company's corporate actions, shareholding changes, and board decisions.

Statutory registers record critical data about members, directors, charges, and loans, while minutes provide a formal record of proceedings from Board Meetings and General Meetings (AGM/EGM). Maintaining these records with 100% accuracy is mandatory to ensure transparency, accountability, and audit readiness. Bizmint provides comprehensive secretarial support, from drafting professional minutes to regular updating of registers, ensuring your corporate governance remains flawless.
