The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) maintains a central repository of documents filed by Companies and LLPs in India.
Stakeholders, professionals, and even the general public can access these documents for due diligence, compliance checks, or business purposes.

There are two main ways to download or view these documents on the MCA portal:


1. Accessing Documents through View Public Document Service

This is the most common method when you want to view documents of any Company or LLP.

Steps:

  1. Go to the MCA portal → MCA Services → Document Related Services.
  2. Enter the Company/LLP Name or CIN/LLPIN.
  3. Login to your MCA Account
  4. Pay a nominal fee (₹100 per company/LLP).
  5. Once the payment is successful, you can download all available documents such as:
    • Certificates
    • Change in Directors/Designated Partner
    • Incorporation Documents
    • Charge Documents
    • Annual Returns and Balance Sheet eForms
    • LLP Forms (Conversion of company to LLP)
    • Other eForm Documents
    • Other

This service is widely used for due diligence before investments, partnerships or compliance checks.


2. Accessing Documents by Logging in with the Company/LLP’s Account

If you are an authorized person (such as a Director, Designated Partner, or Company Secretary), you can log in using the Company/LLP’s registered account on the MCA portal.

Steps:

  1. Log in to the MCA portal with the Company/LLP’s credentials.
  2. Navigate to the My Documents section.
  3. All e-forms, returns, and attachments filed on behalf of the Company/LLP will be available.

This method gives you free access to all documents of your own entity, but it is restricted to authorized users only.


Conclusion

Whether you are a professional conducting due diligence or a stakeholder seeking compliance details, the MCA portal offers transparent and straightforward access to corporate records.

  • Use View Public Documents for open access to any Company/LLP’s filings.
  • Use the Company/LLP’s login account for internal access to your own filings at no cost.

By knowing both methods, you can always retrieve the information you need from the MCA system.
