The internet is not a lawyer and neither are you.
Talk to a real lawyer about your legal issue.

It's a simple process, which can be done in three steps
First Identify all the non-compliance of the company
Second Complete all the Non Compliance of the Company
Third Apply to ROC for Voluntary Winding up of the company by filing Form STK-2 (Application by company to ROC for removing its name from register of Companies)
Since the company has not conducted any business or transacted, nor does it hold any assets in its name, this company would be categorised as a ‘defunct company’.
Since the company would be incorporated as per the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, the provision relating to a defunct company is Section 248 of the 2013 Act.
As per this provision, if a company has failed to commence business within one year of its incorporation, then either the RoC May strike off the name of the company from the register of companies after sending a notice to the directors of the company; or the directors of the company can voluntarily submit an application as per Section 248(2) of the 2013 Act, to the RoC for striking off the name from the register of companies under the Fast Track Exit mode.
As per the Fast Track Exit mode, the directors of the defunct company are required to submit Form STK-2, which needs to filled as per the directions given in the prescribed manner after the conditions for filing the form have been satisfied by the directors, and submitted along with the required documents.
If the RoC is satisfied after examining the application filed by the directors of the defunct company, the RoC shall strike off the name of the company from the register of companies and notify the same to the directors of that company.
