Compliance
A two-route reference checklist of the pre-conditions and documents you need before filing a voluntary strike-off: Form STK-2 for a Pvt Ltd company, Form 24 for an LLP. Carries the current STK-2 government fee, the time-limited CCFS-2026 discount, and both circulating figures for the LLP fee, so you're not working from a stale number.
Prefer we just handle this for you instead of doing it yourself?
Two routes, one checklist. Section 1 covers what a Pvt Ltd company needs before filing Form STK-2 under section 248(2) of the Companies Act. Section 2 covers what an LLP needs before filing Form 24 under the LLP Rules, 2009. Work through whichever section applies to you and tick items off as you gather them.
The STK-2 government fee is Rs 10,000. Some pages still quote Rs 5,000, but that figure is stale, it doubled under a 2019 amendment. A separate scheme, CCFS-2026, currently discounts it to Rs 2,500 for companies only, through 31 August 2026. That discount is 25% of the current Rs 10,000 fee. It is not 25% of the old Rs 5,000 one. Confirm the scheme is still live before you rely on the discounted figure. The LLP Form 24 fee is smaller either way, Rs 500 to Rs 1,000, and the exact number genuinely isn't settled, so this checklist gives you both rather than guessing one.
Confirm every pre-condition against your own filing history first. Most rejections trace back to an overdue AOC-4/MGT-7 or Form 8/11 filing. The strike-off form itself is rarely the problem. Gather the document set, get every affidavit and indemnity bond notarised or executed on the correct stamp paper, and have the finished set reviewed before you file.

LLP Strike-Off (Form 24) Filing
We bring your LLP's overdue Form 8 and Form 11 filings current, then prepare and file Form 24: partner affidavits, an indemnity bond, and coordination of your CA-certified nil statement of accounts, so your defunct LLP is legally closed instead of accumulating a delay-scaled late fee every year it sits unfiled. This is only for an LLP that can honestly certify nil assets and nil liabilities. One with real assets or debts to settle needs voluntary winding up or, if actually insolvent, a registered Insolvency Professional instead, and we'll route that case out rather than take it on as a routine filing.
Pvt Ltd Strike-Off (STK-2) Filing
We prepare and file your company's STK-2 voluntary strike-off application: board and shareholder resolutions, the STK-3 indemnity bond and STK-4 affidavit for every director, and coordination of your CA-certified statement of accounts, so your defunct Pvt Ltd company is legally closed instead of quietly racking up filing penalties. This is only for a company that can honestly certify nil assets and nil liabilities. If yours has real assets or debts to settle, you need a registered Insolvency Professional instead, and we'll tell you that upfront rather than take on a filing we can't honestly deliver.

How to Actually Close a Company in India: Strike-Off vs Dormant vs Liquidation
Strike-off, dormant status, and voluntary liquidation are three different routes with three different rulebooks. The government fee is almost never what decides your cost. Years of overdue filings usually are.
