25 February 2013 Our is a unlimited public company. we have authorised share capital of only Equity.
But now we want to have preference share capital also.

Auth. capital (Equity) is 10 cr.
Paid up (Equity) is 8.5 cr.
We want to reclassify 1.5 cr in Preference capital and further want to increase Preference share capital of Rs. 6 cr.
so please help me how to amend the MOA, how should I draft the MOA capital clause giving effect to both reclassification of existing capital and increase in authorised capital with preference share.
Further two form 5 has to be filed separately for reclassification and also for increase of capital.

25 February 2013 Hi

In that case Clause V of the MOA will be substituted by the following:

V. The Authorised Share Capital of the Company is Rs. 10,00,00,000/- (Rupees Ten Crore) divided into 85,00,000 (Eighty Five Lakh) Equity shares of Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten) each and 15, 00,000 (Fifteen Lakh) 12% Preference Shares Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten) each.

In that case no need to file Form-5 with ROC.

Form-5 required when you increase your authorised share capital.
