Charge Filing as per Companies Act, 2013<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A charge is defined under Section 2(16) of Companies Act, 2013<\/strong>.\nIt means an Interest or lien created on the property<\/a> or assets of a Company or\nany of its undertaking or both, as a security and includes a mortgage. In case\nof creation of charge, it needs to get registered and it is the duty of every\nCompany creating charge should get it registered with Registrar within 30 days\nof creation. In case of delay over 30 days, Registrar may allow getting it\nregistered within three hundred days by the payment of additional fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Need of Creating Charge On Company’s Assets<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Every large and small Company need\nfunds to carry on its operations and day to day activities, thus the companies\nrely on share capital or borrowed funds to meet their needs of financing their\nprojects. Borrowed capital consists of funds raised by issuing debentures,\neither secured debentures or unsecured debentures. Companies also obtain\nfinancial assistance from Financial Institutions or Banks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Financial Institutions lend the money only after getting assured about being repaid in full along with all the interest. Banks make sure their funds are safe and they would be repaid as per agreement. Thus to secure their loans, Banks creates rights in the Assets & Properties of the borrowing companies. Such a creation of rights is termed as the charge on the assets. Such charge on the assets is created as per loan agreements, hypothecation agreements, mortgage deeds, etc, which is executed by Borrowing Companies in the favor of lending Institutions or banks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
