Nidhi Company Annual Compliance
The NDH forms and ROC filings a Nidhi must file to keep its status.
Reviewed by CA Hitendra Pal Singh· company law, tax and complianceLast reviewed
A Nidhi carries the normal company filings plus its own: NDH-1 after the first year, NDH-3 every half-year, NDH-4 to be declared a Nidhi, and the member and net-owned-funds tests that the forms report on. Missing them is how a Nidhi is refused declaration and told to stop taking deposits.
