MGT-15 is due within 30 days of the conclusion of the annual general meeting. Only a listed public company files it: section 121(1) is expressly limited to that class. The report is prepared in addition to the minutes and must confirm that the meeting was convened, held and conducted as the Act and the rules require.

If you miss it
Section 121(3) charges the company ₹1 lakh, plus ₹500 for each day the failure continues after the first, capped at ₹5 lakh. Every officer in default pays not less than ₹25,000, plus ₹500 a day, capped at ₹1 lakh. These are the figures as substituted by the Companies (Amendment) Act, 2019.
- The report is the company's own confirmation that the meeting was validly convened, held and conducted, so its absence from the record leaves that confirmation unmade

Is MGT-15 the same as the minutes?
No. Rule 31(1)(a) requires the report to be prepared in addition to the minutes, and it carries confirmations the minutes do not.
