DPT-3 Due Date

DPT-3, the annual return of deposits and non-deposit transactions, is due 30 June 2026 — a fixed 30 June date every year, unlike AOC-4/MGT-7 which move with the AGM.

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.

A fixed date, not an AGM-relative one

Unlike AOC-4, MGT-7 and ADT-1, DPT-3 doesn't move with your AGM date — it's due 30 June every year regardless of when (or whether) the AGM has been held for that financial year. This makes it one of the easier ROC dates to track, but also one that's easy to overlook precisely because it doesn't cluster with the September-November AGM season most firms build their calendar around.

DPT-3 covers the return of deposits and, separately, non-deposit transactions that many companies mistakenly assume don't apply to them — most companies file it even at a nil position, since the form also captures certain loans and advances that don't look like classic 'deposits' on a casual read of the balance sheet.

Why we don't quote a confident penalty figure

General Companies Act penalty structures for DPT-3 vary by source, and we haven't been able to confirm the exact current company-level and officer-level amounts with the confidence we'd want before presenting them as fact to a CA who will rely on the number. Rather than assert a figure that might be outdated or wrong, this page — and the calculator's penalty estimator for this form — flags DPT-3's penalty as unverified and asks you to confirm the exact amount against the Act and current rules before quoting it to a client.
