DPT-3 Due Date Extended to 31 July 2026 — No Additional Fees

Written by Timo Vikson • Published on 14 Jul 2026 • Read time minutes

Through General Circular 02/2026 (19 June 2026), MCA extended the FY 2025-26 DPT-3 (Return of Deposits) due date from 30 June to 31 July 2026, without additional fees. The relief follows the MCA21 data-centre fire that disrupted filings in peak season.

Who must file

DPT-3 covers deposits and exempt borrowings outstanding as of 31 March 2026 — director loans, shareholder loans, bank borrowings, inter-corporate loans. In practice, most private limited companies with any borrowing on the books need to file.

What to do

  • Reconcile all borrowings as of 31 March 2026 with your auditor.
  • File DPT-3 on MCA21 by 31 July 2026.
