The most recent insolvency notice for Startup Stage Limited is an Appointment of liquidators (MVL), published 13 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holder is Donald McNaught of Johnston Carmichael LLP, 227 West George Street, Glasgow, G2 2ND, appointed 1 October 2026. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 March 2025, showed total assets of £406k and net assets of £219k. Those accounts were filed 18 months before the first insolvency notice, so they describe the company well before the process began. A members' voluntary liquidation (MVL) is the solvent, orderly winding-up of a company that can pay its debts in full — usually part of a director's retirement, a group restructure, or closing a company that has served its purpose. It is a planned closure, not a sign of financial distress.
