ADT-1 Due Date

ADT-1 is due within 15 days of the AGM at which the auditor was appointed or reappointed — for an AGM on 30 September 2026, that's 15 October 2026, the tightest of the three AGM-relative deadlines.

Company profile

Entity & dates

AOC-4, MGT-7 and ADT-1 all recompute from this date.

Applicable filings

ADT-1 is filed only when an auditor is appointed or re-appointed — typically once every five years, not at every AGM.

DPT-3 is filed by every company — including a nil return where there are no deposits or loans. Included by default; tick only to exclude it.

Event-based — 30 days from the resolution date, not annual.

The condition most calculators skip: 'appointed or reappointed at this AGM'

ADT-1 isn't automatic every year the way AOC-4 and MGT-7 are — it's only triggered when the auditor is actually appointed or reappointed at that specific AGM. An auditor serving a multi-year term (auditors can be appointed for up to 5 years, subject to ratification conventions) doesn't necessarily trigger a fresh ADT-1 at every intervening AGM — only at the AGM where the appointment or reappointment actually happens.

This is exactly why the ROC Compliance Calendar treats ADT-1 as conditional on a checkbox rather than showing it unconditionally for every company every year — showing it when it doesn't apply creates false urgency, and hiding it when it does apply risks a genuinely missed filing.

The 15-day window in practice

At 15 days, ADT-1 has the shortest AGM-relative window of the three (AOC-4 gets 30, MGT-7 gets 60) — which means it's disproportionately at risk of being missed in the days immediately following an AGM, when a firm's attention is often still on closing out the meeting's minutes and resolutions rather than an already-due ROC filing.

Building ADT-1 into the AGM day's own checklist, rather than leaving it for the following weeks, is the most reliable way to avoid this — the same meeting that appoints or reappoints the auditor is the natural trigger point to confirm whether this filing applies at all this cycle.
