Disagree with Jithesh.

You have to file form 23 for the appointment of MD irrespective of the method of appointment and also required to attach notice along with the explanatory Statement.

Filing form 23 for appointment of MD is specifically desired by Section 192(4)(c).

Revert if there is any doubt.

But Sir if the AOA says that sec 173(2) shall not apply to the Company so in that case also do we need to attach explainatory statement??

As per companies Act it is mandatory that if ypu are passing any resolution as Special resolution , we have to file Form 23 with Notice and Explanatory Statement, It is a statutory requirement.

I don't think RoC will approve a Form 23 with out notice and explanatory statement and more over you cannot file form 23 unless you attach the notice and explanatory as they itself are mandatory requirement as per MCA - 21

Hope this may clarify ur query

Agree with Jitesh.

It is very much required to attach.

Dear Members

I am reproducing the query raised by Priya Sharma for our convenience and better understanding.

"We are redesignationg one of the directors of our Co(Pvt. Co.). as MD by a Board Resolution, so in this case we are filing form 32 and form 23, so should we attach notice to form 23?"

As per the above query it appears that the resolution is being approved by the Board of Directors and not by Shareholders of the company. For private companies there is no requirement to obtain approval of members in respect of appointment of MD / WTD.

The company being a private limited company has to file File 32 and Form 23 with ROC in respect of appointment of MD. In my opinion it is enough if the "CERTIFIED COPY OF BOARD OF DIRECTORS RESOLUTION" is attached with Form 23 being filed with ROC. The question of attaching Notice and Explanatory Statement does not arise since the resolutions are approved by the Board.

Further for private limited companies Section 173 is exempted. As such there is no requirement to attach Explanatory Statement to Notice convening the AGM / EGM. However in regular practice most private companies are attaching explanatory statement. The companies which do not want to attach explanatory statement can add a note in the Notice stating the exemption given under the provisions of the Act and Articles of Association.

Further views are solicited

with regards

Muralidharan
