XBRL is required by almost all corporate companies to furnish their compliance with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
As the XBRL format is widely used in corporate companies, it is an encrypted way to share the financial details of the business with the government and has been made possible with the help of software.
The XBRL filing has to be done on time, and here we have showcased the timeline and due dates to file the XBRL as per the demand of the MCA.
