Overview on Revival of Struck Off Companies

Are you aiming to revive your struck off company? If yes, you are at the right place as we assist with swift revival of struck off companies.

Strike off means temporary closure of the Company or removal of the name of the Company from the Register of Company by the Registrar following the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. It is a substitute for winding up of the Company, and in this case, the Company can get revived for a period of twenty years from the date of strike-off.

The member, creditor or workman of a company can file a petition for Revival of the Company before the expiry of 20 years of striking off from notification in the official gazette under section 252(1), and others can file a petition under section 252(3) within three years from the publication of notification in the official gazette. The demand draft of Rs. 1000/- should be filed with the petition as fees.
