Yes, promoters can contribute in kind (non-cash assets) towards share capital of a company. This is called issue of shares against consideration other than cash.
Key Points and Procedure:
Valuation of Assets
The non-cash assets (like machinery, land, intellectual property, etc.) must be valued by a Registered Valuer to determine their fair market value.
Board Approval
The Board of Directors must approve the proposal to issue shares against these non-cash assets.
Shareholders Approval
If shares are issued for consideration other than cash, approval by shareholders is generally required via special resolution in a General Meeting (unless covered under specific exemptions).
Issue of Shares
Shares are allotted to promoters against the valued assets.
Filing with MCA
File Form PAS-3 (Return of Allotment) within 30 days of allotment with Registrar of Companies (ROC).
File Form SH-7 if the authorized share capital needs to be increased to accommodate new shares.
Disclosure of valuation report may be required in board/shareholders resolution records.
Accounting Treatment
The assets contributed in kind are recorded at the fair value as per the valuer's report in company books.
Share capital is credited with corresponding value.
Relevant Sections of Companies Act, 2013:
Section 62(1)(b) - Issue of shares for consideration other than cash.
Section 42 - Private placement rules (if applicable).
Section 56(2)(vi) - Valuation rules and disclosure for shares issued for non-cash consideration.
