This query is : Resolved 

20 June 2015 Dear Sir,

Whether an Advocate can sign in subscriber page of MOA & AOA as witness at the time of formation of a new company under company law 2013?

Thanking you.

20 June 2015 There is no provision in the Act that the witness should only be a professional.
As per law WITNESS TO MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF NEWLY INCORPORATING COMPANY, IT IS NOT NECESSARY ONE SHOULD BE A PRACTISING PROFESSIONAL OR EVEN OTHERS(LIKE PROFESSIONALS IN SERVICE OR EVEN LAYMAN) CAN ALSO DO IT. But few ROC still insist for a professional witness to MOA as a safe practice only.

So, Advocate can sign as witness
