Any increase in the authorized share capital would come into effect immediately on passing of any valid resolution in this behalf, and filing of the requisite Forms 5, 23, being a ministerial act and procedural in nature, would not influence the date of increase of the authorized share capital. [Kobian (P) Ltd. v Kobian India (P) Ltd. and Others (2005) 64 CLA 281 (CLB)].
Subsequent cancellation of the resolution to increase the share capital or adoption of the resolution to reduce the share capital could not absolve the petitioners from their liability to file e-Form 5 notice alongwith the prescribed fee before the Registrar of Companies within 30 days of adoption of the resolution to increase the share capital. [Amison Foods Ltd. v Registrar of Companies (1999) 19 SCL 82 (Ker)].
