AGM arrangements
Notice to members, agenda, attendance and minutes for your annual general meeting.

We hold your AGM on schedule, prepare and file your company's annual return and financial statements with SECP, keep your beneficial ownership declaration current and bring overdue years up to date, so your company stays in good standing.
Every company registered with SECP has an annual cycle: hold an annual general meeting, adopt the accounts, file the financial statements where required and file an annual return showing who the members, directors and officers are. Miss it, and penalties grow with every day of default.
Under section 132 of the Companies Act, 2017, a company holds its first AGM within 16 months of incorporation and then one each year within 120 days of its financial year end, with members given at least 21 days' notice. Single member companies are exempt from holding an AGM. Under section 130, the annual return is filed within 30 days of the AGM, or within 30 days of the calendar year end if no AGM is held. Where section 233 requires it, the audited financial statements are filed within 15 days of the AGM, and the beneficial ownership declaration is filed with the annual return.
Companies that stop filing for two consecutive years can be placed on the register of inactive companies, and persistent non-filing can end in the company being struck off. Inactive companies have their own simpler annual filing, due within 30 days of the close of each calendar year. If your company is behind, our corporate compliance team can bring it up to date, and if it has already been struck off, see company restoration.
