Admin: Set Up Society Compliance Profile

Admin: set up society compliance profile

Requires: Society admin role and Statutory compliance module enabled (Governance add-on).

Steps

1. Go to Admin → Governance → Statutory compliance (/admin/compliance).
2. On the empty state, tap Set up compliance.
3. Entity type — select CHS (MCS/KCS/generic), RWA, AOA, condominium, or MSCS. The wizard assigns the correct regulatory pack (e.g. mh_chs_v1 for Maharashtra CHS).
4. State and registration — confirm state matches society records; enter Registrar office if known. Unknown or unsupported state blocks setup — contact support rather than defaulting to Maharashtra.
5. Financial year — set co-operative year start/end (default 1 April – 31 March). Toggle GST registered and TDS applicable if relevant.
6. Auditor and committee — enter statutory auditor (name, firm, panel year, consecutive appointment years); set committee term end date.
7. Alerts — choose channels (in-app, email, SMS, push), escalation days (default T-30/T-14/T-7/T-1), and weekly digest day.
8. Tap Finish — Plinth calls initialize_compliance_year and creates tasks for the active year.

After setup, the Compliance Hub shows your full timeline. Re-running initialize for the same FY is idempotent.

Tips

• For Bengaluru societies, disambiguate CHS vs AOA — Karnataka AOA uses ka_aoa_v1 without CHS Registrar returns.
• Delhi RWA uses in_rwa_v1 only — no CHS tasks.
• Member transparency is off by default; enable later in compliance settings if desired.

FAQ

Can I change entity type after setup? Update via compliance settings; re-initialize the year to refresh tasks (logged in audit trail).

Does setup auto-file anything? No — setup only creates the calendar and tasks. Filing packs are generated per task later.
