It is very important to map or tag the financial statements correctly, so care should be taken while mapping the same and generate correct instance document. The instance document can be generated by the software vendor and validate it through the MCA XBRL Validation tool and rectify the errors occurred, if any. After validation just pre-scrutinize the file and attach the XML file in the Annual filing form.

AOC-4 XBRL is currently used for the filing the annual statements commencing on or after 01.04.2014. The forms can be filed on MCA portal after logging.(To know the process of e-filing click here http://indiacs.blogspot.in/2016/08/a-common-can-file-roc-returnhow.html )
