There isn't an official single-file consolidation **from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA)** that lists **all applicable sections and resolutions specifically for Private Limited Companies**, but here's how you can approach it:
Many sections of the Companies Act, 2013 apply to all companies, but some have **exceptions, modifications, or exemptions** for private limited companies. The MCA has issued:
๐น **Exemption Notification (5th June 2015)** โ provides significant relaxations for Private Companies under various sections. You can access this from the MCA website or via this reference:
> **Notification No. G.S.R. 464(E), dated 5th June 2015** > Titled: *"Exemptions to Private Companies under Companies Act, 2013"*
This includes exemptions from or modifications to:
* Section 43 (Kinds of Share Capital) * Section 62(1)(a)(i) (Rights issue timeline) * Section 67 (Restrictions on purchase of own shares) * Section 92 (Annual Return โ less disclosures) * Section 101โ107 (General meetings โ relaxed provisions) * Section 160 (Right to stand for director election) โ not applicable * Section 196 (Appointment of MD/WTD) โ relaxed
