ADT-1 is the form for intimating the appointment of an auditor under Section 139 of the Companies Act, 2013. It must be filed within 15 days of the AGM at which the auditor is appointed (or within 15 days of the board meeting in case of first auditor). The filing is supported by the auditor's written consent, eligibility certificate under Section 141(3), and the board / shareholder resolution.

ADT-1 is simple but mandatory every 5 years (and every time there's a change). Per-filing quotes of ₹1,500–₹3,000 feel small but recur. Combined with annual filing in the same season, you end up paying multiple invoices just to keep one company compliant. Unlimited plan rolls them into one fee.
Suitable only if ADT-1 is the only filing your company will need this entire year.
Subscribed members raise the ADT-1 request through their dashboard or email.
We share a checklist. You upload the documents. Our team reviews within 24 hours.
Resolutions are drafted, the form is prepared and submitted to MCA / GST portal.
SRN / acknowledgement shared with you. Records updated. Standard 3 working day TAT.
The Unlimited Annual Plan covers ADT-1 and 13 other key compliances every Private Limited Company needs — under one fixed annual fee. No per-filing quotes, no surprise invoices, no missed deadlines.

Yes. ADT-1 is one of the 14 services included. You can raise as many ADT-1 requests as you genuinely need throughout the year, one request at a time.
No. Government filing fees, stamp duty and certification charges are billed separately at actuals. The ₹15,000 covers the professional filing service only.
A checklist is shared the moment you raise the request. Documents typically include resolutions, KYC of relevant persons and supporting evidence specific to ADT-1.
Three working days from receipt of complete documents and required approvals. Saturdays and Sundays are non-working days.
The unlimited plan is structured as a bundle. We've found that companies needing one filing almost always need others within 12 months — and the bundle works out cheaper for nearly every Private Limited Company.
