In order to expand the Capital base for infusion of additional funds by way of share capital, it is proposed to increase the Authorised Share Capital from the existing Rs.5,00,000/- (Rupees Five Lakh only) to Rs.3,02,00,000/- (Rupees Three Crore Two Lakh only) subject to compliance of  statutory provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 and also to amend Clause V of the Memorandum of Association and Article 4 of the Articles Of Association in this regard. 

 

As per the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956, special resolution of the members is required to give effect to the proposed resolutions.

The Directors recommend the resolutions at Item No.1 for approval of the Shareholders by special resolution.

Draft of EGM resolution:

 

“RESOLVED THAT pursuant to provisions of sections 94, 97 and other applicable provisions, if any, of the Companies Act, 1956 the Authorized Share Capital of the Company be and is hereby increased from Rs ……/- divided into …..

Only one thing I would like to suggest you that while drafting the Explanatory statement please specify  the purpose properly and reason of that change also.

Here in this explanatory statement it is better, if you also specify the proper reason of Infusion of more funds like expansion of business activities or so no.
