Understanding MoA Amendment

MoA is essentially the Company’s constitution that prescribes its objective, liability, capital, name, and location of the entity. Companies looking forward to make any change in the name, location, and / or capital structure need amend their MoA as well. In order to do so, a special resolution passed by the Company’s shareholders and Board Members and that need to be submitted and approved by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA).

Start with Homework

Before initiating the process of making MoA amendments, Experts @ Digital Filings will thoroughly understand the Company’s constitution (MoA and AoA) and also study the Entity’s past operations. This is a critical step and might take around 2 to 3 business days.

g

Drafting the Resolutions

After properly understanding all the requirements for the desired MoA amendments, the Team @ Digital Filings will efficiently assist drafting the Board Resolutions, clearly stating all the proposed changes to be made in the MoA.

Important Approvals

To move ahead with the MoA amendment the Company needs to seek and attain an approval  of its shareholders (more than 75%) in an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM). To schedule an EGM, the Board Directors must intimate the Company’s shareholders at-least 21 days before the date of the planned EGM. The notice of EGM must include agenda and draft of the proposed resolution to be passed as a special resolution.

And all Set!

Approved special resolution (to be filed in Form MGT-14), minutes of the EGM, along with the prescribed fee and other required documents, are then compiled and filed at the MCA for the approval within 30 days of the passing of the resolution. The Company’s amended MoA will come in force post MCA’s approval.
