The SECP’s e-services are aimed at facilitating the online availability of name, online incorporation of companies and e-filing of statutory returns, and enables the promoters and other officers of the company to interact online using the services portal, without visiting the SECP.
The services filing facility is an easy and hassle-free mode of submission, coupled with an added feature of lesser fees as compared to manual filing. Foreign companies have especially welcomed this initiative.
Mahboob Ahmad, in-charge of the CRO, said this while addressing a seminar on e-governance Regime and Benefits of Corporatisation at the District Bar Association in Faisalabad on Friday. He enumerated various actions taken by the SECP to facilitate the corporate sector. He made a detailed presentation on the services project covering the relevant provisions of the company laws, especially highlighting different aspects of incorporation of companies and post-incorporation statutory compliance. He said that the corporatisation benefits the companies because financial institutions treat them favourably and they get stronger by having a system of checks and balances. The corporatisation also strengthens the national economy.
Asghar Baig, deputy registrar SECP, explained the technical aspects of various steps of online filing of documents in the services.
