Secretarial Compliance

At Hedgesquare, we provide comprehensive Secretarial Compliance support to help businesses maintain robust corporate governance and adhere to evolving statutory requirements. In today's dynamic regulatory environment, staying compliant is not just about meeting deadlines—it's about demonstrating transparency, accountability, and strategic foresight. Recent initiatives by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) underscore the increasing emphasis on corporate governance. SEBI has proposed revisions to the Annual Secretarial Compliance Report (ASCR), aiming to enhance clarity and enforceability in compliance reporting. These changes reflect a broader trend toward tightening the regulatory ecosystem and ensuring that listed entities uphold high standards of governance.

Our services are designed to help you navigate these complexities with confidence. We assist in managing event-based and periodic filings, ensuring timely and accurate submissions to the Registrar of Companies (ROC). Our team supports the preparation and filing of financial disclosures in XBRL format, aligning with the latest mandates for E- reporting.

Let’s walk Mr. Raj—founder in growth mode—through a real-world moment where he wasn’t sure if his capital setup still matched his company’s momentum.

User Raj

"We’re looking at expanding operations and may need to revise our capital structure. I’m unsure what steps are involved or how it impacts our company in the long term."

User

"That’s a critical step in your growth journey. Capital structuring isn’t just administrative—it influences ownership, funding flexibility, and investor positioning."

User Raj

"I see. So, what exactly comes under capital restructuring?"

User

"It can involve increasing or reorganising your authorised or paid-up capital, issuing new shares, or even reducing capital—depending on business needs or compliance triggers."

User Raj

"And what’s the typical process to get this rolling?"

User

"We start with a review of your existing shareholding and strategic goals. Then we assist with drafting board/shareholder resolutions, updating your charter documents, and filing statutory forms with authorities."

User Raj

"That sounds heavily procedural. What should we be cautious about?"

User

"Accuracy and timing. Incorrect filings or skipped approvals can delay investments, attract penalties, or affect future audits."

User Raj

"Got it. So how does Hedgesquare fit in?"

User

"We become your compliance and documentation partner—handling filings, maintaining registers, and ensuring the entire process aligns with regulatory norms and your business strategy."

User Raj

"That’s helpful. Sounds like more than just ticking boxes."

User

"Exactly. We see capital structuring as a financial foundation—not just a formality. Our role is to ensure you're structurally sound and transaction-ready, always."
