💰 Form DPT-3 – Return of Deposits

🧾 Stay Compliant with Annual Deposit Reporting Requirements

Every company in India that has accepted money in any form — whether as deposits, loans, or advances — must report these details annually to the Registrar of Companies (ROC) by filing Form DPT-3.

At KLS Advisors, we help companies prepare, review, and file Form DPT-3 accurately, ensuring full compliance with the Companies (Acceptance of Deposits) Rules, 2014 and avoiding costly penalties.

💡 What is Form DPT-3?

Form DPT-3 is an annual return filed to report details of all outstanding loans, deposits, or money received by a company that has not been classified as deposits.
It helps the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) track company liabilities and ensure transparency in financial dealings.

This form applies to all companies, including:

• Private Limited Companies

• Public Limited Companies

• One Person Companies (OPCs)

⚖️ Legal Requirement

Under Rule 16 of the Companies (Acceptance of Deposits) Rules, 2014, every company (other than government companies) must file Form DPT-3 every year on or before 30th June, for the financial data ending 31st March of that year.
