Hint:

For a new company, the deadline to verify its registered office with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) is 30 days from the date of incorporation.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Section 12(1) of the Companies Act, 2013, mandates that a company shall have a registered office capable of receiving and acknowledging all communications and notices. Section 12(4) specifies the timeline for this verification. It states: "Notice of every change of the situation of the registered office, verified in the manner as may be prescribed, shall be given to the Registrar within thirty days of the date of incorporation of the company or, as the case may be, the date of change..." This means the verification must be filed within 30 days of its incorporation.
