Vide General Circular No: 4/2010, Dated the 22nd November, 2010 , MCA had changed the structure of Additional Fees to be levied for delay in filing E Forms over the companies while filing their Balance Sheet and Annual Returns with concerned Registrar of Companies through MCA Portal. Such change of Additional Fee Structure encouraged the Corporate to file their returns as early as possible so that they can avoid the heavy additional fees. That has resulted in increase the percentage of filing within the due time. The structure of Additional Fees which had been applicable from 5-12-2010 is elaborated with an example as follows:
Currently MCA21 payments are allowed via Credit Card, Internet Banking & Physical Challan. The Ministry has authorized 5 banks (Indian Bank, HDFC, ICICI, PNB and SBI) for collection of MCA21 fees, which means that only the account holders of these banks can avail Internet banking facility. Further, payment via challan can only be made in the authorized branches of these above five banks. Though this was a major improvement compared to the earlier manual system, it caused delays in incorporation of companies and processing of other eForms.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has instructed that from Monday next, i.e. May 29th, 2011 the payment of less than Rs. 50,000/- through electronic mode will be permissible in the “Investor Education and Protection Fund” through Pay Misc. Fee functionality. This facility will also be admissible for user having category as“Official Liquidator office, and the user having category as MCA employee.

In the interest of stakeholders, with a view to improving service delivery time, Ministry has decided to accept payments of value upto Rs.50,000, for MCA 21 services, only in electronic mode w.e.f 27th March, 2011. For the payments of value above Rs. 50,000, stakeholders would have the option to either make the payment in electronic mode, or paper challan. However such payments would also be made in electronic mode w.e.f .1st October’2011.
