About Increase in Authorized Capital
-
To Existing Promoters
If you are increasing the authorised capital and issuing new shares to existing promoters, a board meeting needs to be called and Form PAS-3 needs to be filed with the Registrar of Companies (RoC), intimating the allotment of shares.

To New Shareholders
Issuing shares to new shareholders is a complicated procedure, necessitating a valuation report from a chartered accountant.

Board Meeting
The board meeting is conducted where the board of directors approves to conduct the EGM and a notice regarding the same is issued. The notice, on the behalf of the board, is issued to each and every member/ shareholder of the company regarding EGM where the member/ shareholder will decide through their vote, the special business transaction for which the EGM will take place.
