Return of Deposits (Form DPT-3 Filing)

Stay compliant by reporting company deposits and borrowings to ROC.

Why It Matters

As per Section 73 to 76 of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Companies (Acceptance of Deposits) Rules, 2014, every company (other than government companies) must file an annual return of deposits and borrowings in Form DPT-3 with the Registrar of Companies (ROC).

DPT-3 filing includes:

  • Deposits accepted by the company
  • Outstanding loans, borrowings, or amounts not considered deposits
  • Money received but not treated as deposits under the Act

Failure to file leads to:

  • Heavy penalties on both company and officers in default
  • Regulatory scrutiny during audits and inspections
  • Restrictions in raising funds and investor confidence
