If you being aggrieved by a fraud committed by the company, you can report the complaint with Service Fraud Investigation Office through the Central Government. Fraud in relation to affairs of a company or any corporate body as defined in S.447 read with S.448 of the Companies Act 2013.

Yes. This is under Sec. 447 & 448. But how are you saying that Limited Company making false statements? Actually, this is not your problem and you put an academic query.

Putting the query other way -

A Ltd Co. in its Company Master is showing 1.0 year 2011, authorized capital as 50 lakhs. 2.0 year 2021, authorised capital as 5 crore. In fact in BS of year 2012 & later the figure is deliberately is reported as 5 crore - no formality is done with the ROC to raise this capital. The balance sheets as on date carry the same figure of 5 crore. What steps to be taken in this case? How the responsibility be fixed - The directors, auditors, company? Whom to approach and how?
