The **requisite number of members to pass a Special Resolution** under the **Companies Act, 2013** (India) is:
* **At least 75% of the votes cast** by the members entitled to vote on the resolution, whether in a general meeting or by postal ballot.
### Key points:
* The resolution must be passed by a **majority of not less than three-fourths** (i.e., 75%) of the members voting (either in person or by proxy).
* This applies when the resolution is put to vote in a **General Meeting** or by **Postal Ballot**.
* The notice of the meeting should clearly state that a special resolution is being proposed.

### Summary:
| Type of Resolution | Voting Requirement |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| Ordinary Resolution | Majority of >50% of votes cast |
| **Special Resolution** | Majority of ≥75% of votes cast |

If you want, I can also share the procedure for passing a special resolution or examples of matters requiring a special resolution. Would you like that?
