First AGM Due Date for a New Company

A company's first AGM is due within 9 months of its first financial year end — 31 December 2026 in this example — a full 3 months longer than the standard 6-month rule that applies to every AGM after the first.

Why the first AGM gets extra time

A newly incorporated company's first financial year can run longer than the usual 12 months — anywhere up to roughly 15 months, depending on the incorporation date — which is exactly why the first AGM gets 9 months from that (potentially longer) year end rather than the standard 6. It's a recognition that a brand-new company's first set of accounts genuinely takes longer to prepare.

This exception applies only once, to the first AGM specifically — every subsequent AGM reverts to the standard 6-month rule from each year's financial year end, with no carryover of the extra 3 months.

What else is happening at the same time for a new company

A newly incorporated company is usually juggling the first-AGM timeline alongside INC-20A (commencement of business, due within 180 days of incorporation) and setting up its ongoing annual filing calendar for the first time — all three deserve attention together rather than treating the first AGM as an isolated date.

Because none of these three clocks depend on each other, they can — and should — be planned in parallel from the day of incorporation, rather than waiting for one to finish before starting to think about the next.
