SECRETARIAL SERVICES
Company Secretarial Services
Companies that are registered under the Companies Act of 2013 or the previous Companies Act of 1956 must abide by a number of rules that are specific to them and that are outlined in the Companies Act of 2013 and other relevant laws. In India, a company secretary is essential to a company’s secretarial services.
The following are some ways a corporate secretary can assist:
Compliance: Ensuring that the business conforms with all relevant laws, rules, and regulations is one of the company secretary’s most crucial responsibilities. This include keeping the company’s statutory registers up to date, submitting several forms and returns to regulatory bodies, and making sure that the business’s operations comply with the Companies Act of 2013 and other relevant regulations.
Corporate Governance: By ensuring that the business adheres to sound corporate governance principles, a company secretary can assist. This include providing the board of directors with guidance regarding their duties and responsibilities, making sure that meetings between the board and shareholders are held in compliance with the law, and assisting in the exchange of information between the board and shareholders.
Board Support: By creating agendas, minutes, and resolutions and making sure the board has the information it needs to make decisions, a company secretary can offer the board of directors invaluable assistance.
Shareholder Relations: By keeping them updated on the business’s operations and giving them a way to get in touch with the board of directors, a company secretary can support the upkeep of positive relationships with the firm’s shareholders.
Risk management: A company secretary can help identify and manage the firm’s risks, such as operational, legal, and regulatory risks as well as reputational issues.
All things considered, a company secretary is essential to making sure that a business abides by all relevant laws and rules, implements sound corporate governance, and keeps positive relationships with its stakeholders.
