AGm May be held at shorter notice but at least reasonable time to be given ,if demerged entity is WOS then ya it can be held on same day subject to confirmation by majority of members ,yes late filing fees for AOC 4 / MGT 7 applicable,For AGM beyond the deadline condonation should be made with all justifications to MCA/RD
