Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

Executive Summary: This document contains the Nidhi Amendment Rules, 2019, which amend the Nidhi Rules, 2014. It outlines new regulations and requirements for companies declared as Nidhi or Mutual Benefit Societies, including declaration processes, compliance timelines, and form updates. Key dates include the effective date of August 15, 2019, and deadlines for filing Form NDH4. Key Points / Main Content: General Amendments: * These rules are called the Nidhi Amendment Rules, 2019. * These rules shall come into force with effect from August 15, 2019. * Rule 2 is amended to include every company declared as Nidhi or Mutual Benefit Society under section 406(1) of the Act. * Rule 3 is amended to define a Nidhi as a company incorporated as such to cultivate thrift and savings among members, receiving deposits from and lending to members only, and complying with Central Government rules. Declaration of Nidhis (Rule 3A): * Requires public companies to apply to the Central Government in Form NDH4 with a fee to be declared as a Nidhi. * Nidhis incorporated on or after the commencement of these amendment rules must file Form NDH4 within 60 days from the expiry of one year from incorporation or the extended period granted by the Regional Director. * Failure to comply will prevent the company from filing Form SH7 (alteration of share capital) and Form PAS3 (return of allotment). Amendments to Rules 4 and 5: * Rule 4(1)(i): Removes "to be incorporated under the Act". * Rule 4(5)(ii): Removes "Company incorporated as a". * Rule 5(1)(i): Substitutes "from the commencement of these rules" with "from the date of its incorporation". * Rule 5(3)(ii): Allows the Regional Director to extend the period up to one year from the date of receipt of application. * Rule 5(4)(iii): Requires companies to get themselves declared under section 406(1). Other Amendments: * Rule 7(1): Inserts "fully paid up" after "shall issue". * Rule 12(1)(i): Inserts "The date of declaration or notification as Nidhi". * Rule 12(2)(ii): Substitutes "Registrar of Companies" with "Bench of the National Company Law Tribunal". * Rule 23(2): Substitutes "concerned Regional Director" and "Regional Director" with "Central Government". Compliance for Existing Nidhis (Rules 23A and 23B): * Companies under rule 2(b) and Nidhis incorporated before these amendments must get themselves declared under Rule 3A within one year from incorporation or six months from the commencement of these rules, whichever is later. * Companies declared as Nidhis under previous company law must file Form NDH4 to update their status. * No fees are charged for filing Form NDH4 within six months of the commencement of these rules. * Failure to comply will prevent the company from filing Form SH7 and Form PAS3. Form NDH4: * Introduces Form NDH4 for application for declaration as Nidhi Company and for updating of status by Nidhis. Impact Analysis: Nidhi Companies: *Impact:* Must comply with the new declaration requirements, file Form NDH4, and meet the deadlines specified in the rules to avoid restrictions on filing certain forms. *Action Required:* File Form NDH4 within the stipulated timeframes and ensure compliance with all amended rules. Central Government: *Impact:* Responsible for notifying companies as Nidhis in the Official Gazette upon meeting the requirements. *Action Required:* Process applications in Form NDH4 and issue notifications for compliant companies. Regional Directors: *Impact:* May extend the period for companies to meet requirements for Nidhi declaration. *Action Required:* Review and process applications for extensions. Members of Nidhi Companies: *Impact:* Indirectly affected as the rules aim to ensure the financial stability and proper regulation of Nidhi companies, which manage their savings and loans. *Action Required:* Be aware of the changes and ensure the Nidhi company they are associated with complies with the new regulations.
