OKstartups Compliance Kit – Subscription Terms & FAQs

Helping founders stay compliant with confidence.

Last updated: 11/06/2025

What is the Compliance Kit?

The OKstartups Compliance Kit is a subscription service that takes care of your GST and ROC filings—monthly, quarterly, yearly—so you don’t miss deadlines or face penalties.

When does compliance begin?

Your compliance obligations begin from the date of incorporation, not from the day you subscribe.

📌 Example:

If your company was incorporated on 1st April 2023, and you subscribed in January 2024, you are still liable for filings between April to December 2023. We will help you complete those, but charges will apply for that entire period.

Can I pause my subscription?

No. Subscription pausing is not supported.

📌 Example:

If you subscribed from April to June and paused in July, the compliance team cannot track updates, verify changes, or file NIL returns. That’s why you’ll be charged for the missed period when you return, even if no activity occurred.

What if I cancel my subscription midway?

You can cancel any Quarterly or Half-Yearly plan, but:

  • OKstartups is only responsible for filings until your cancellation date

  • If a due date is later, we won’t file the compliance unless you renew

  • No refunds for unused time

📌 Example:

Let’s say your ROC filing is due 31 October. If you cancel your subscription in July, and haven’t submitted docs yet, we are not liable to file your ROC after cancellation—even though the due date is in the future.

What happens if I return after cancelling?

You can resume your subscription anytime, but:

  • You’ll need to pay for the months you missed

  • We’ll file backdated returns only after dues are cleared

  • We’ll bring all your records up-to-date again

📌 Example:

You subscribed from April to June, cancelled in July, and came back in November.
You’ll pay for July to November, and we’ll complete all missed GST or ROC filings for that period.

What if there was no business activity during a period?

You will still be charged, even if no GST or ROC event occurred.

Why? Because:

  • NIL returns must still be filed

  • We track and confirm inactivity with the authorities

  • Verification of no transactions is itself a compliance task

📌 Example:

From April to June, you had zero sales.
We still file NIL GST returns, confirm your inactive status, and update records. Hence, the subscription fee still applies.

Is my data secure?

Yes. Your compliance records are kept confidential and handled using secure systems.
