Section 174(4) deals with 2 situations.
The first is where the meeting is not adjourned to any date. In such a situation, what the sub-section says is thet the meeting shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week. This is an automatic statutory adjournment of the meeting without the intervention of human agency.
The second situation contemplated under 174(4) is to hold the meeting on such other day and at such other time and place as the board may determine.
The operation of the second part of 174(4) comes into play when the meeting is adjourned by the board of directors to be convened on any particular day and time, at any particular place on the date of the meeting itself or at any date before the commencement of the same day in the next week. If no such date is fixed before that time limit, the first part of 174(4) automatically operates and the convening of the meeting on the same day in the next week at the same time and place.

Whether the date for the adjourn meeting can be fixed by way of circular resolution passed by board of directors.

Yes it can be intimated by a circular.
But normally if there ia any important discussions to be done than some directors dont intimate and as per the law if the EGM conducted next week same day and same time is valid. Just a play of game.
