Companies Act

 

As per Section-171 notice must be of 21 clear days and when notice is served through post, 48 hours period for postal transit is added to specified 21 clear days (Sec.-53).
 
My doubt is that whether we have have to deduct 24 hours (common between date of service and 48 hours of posting) from those 48 hours? When I was solving practical problems from practice manual provided by the institute I found different ways of calculating these days in two almost similar problems and answer differs.
 
Please help me out.
Thanks in advance

21 CLEAR DAYS MEANS= 21 DAYS EXCLUDING THE DATE OF NOTICE AND MEETING.


POSTAL= 48 HOURS i.e. 2 DAYS ARE TO BE FURTHER ADDED.

 

IT MEANS = IF THE DATE OF AGM IS 30TH SEPTEMBER, 2011

THE DATE OF NOTICE MUST BE ON OR BEFORE (21+2) DAYS= 6 SEPTEMBER, 2011.

that means we dont have to take 24 hours in common between date of service and 48 hours of posting?

Rohit your question is not clear...
