Difference between ordinary and special resolution

Hey, An ordinary resolution requires the consent of atleast 50% of the members present whereas a special resolution requires the consent of atleast 75% of the members present to be passed. You can refer the companies act to know which of the items require a special resolution and which are the one's that require an ordinary resolution.

Agree...........

In addition to above...........

Ordinary resolution is passed to adopt the ordinary business of the organisation 

viz.  appointment of auditors, appointment of directors, adoption of financials and declaration of dividend

Special resolution is passed to take into consideration the special business which is nothing but business other than Ordinary business.

What.....???

Have you read and replied to this... there are so many transactions that ordinary resolution can be passed for Special Business transactions.

Dont just blindly reply whatever you know..
