We reply within one working day with what applies to you and the exact fee.
What this covers
Adding a director needs a DIN, consent in Form DIR-2, a board or shareholder resolution and Form DIR-12 filed within 30 days. Removing one — by resignation or by shareholder resolution — needs its own set, and a resigning director can also file DIR-11 themselves.
The 30-day window is where things go wrong. Late DIR-12 filings carry additional fees that multiply with delay, and a register that does not match the MCA record causes problems in due diligence years later.
We prepare the resolutions and forms, file within the window and update the statutory registers.

How we handle it

Board or general meeting as the situation requires, with the notice and minutes to support it.
Filed inside 30 days
DIR-12 within the window avoids additional fees that escalate sharply with delay.
Resignation protection
A resigning director's DIR-11 filing is what protects them from liability for what the company does afterwards. We do not skip it.
