Resolution for sub-division of shares

Queries 7591 views 3 replies

When a company goes for sub-division of shares of Rs. 10 each to Re.1 each, should a special resolution be passed or an ordinary resolution is enough.

 

Sec 94 specifies that resolution should be passed in general meeting. Kindly clarify the nature of the resolution to be passed.

An Ordinary resolution is enough for alteration of share capital by subdivision of shares u/s 94(1)(d) of the Companies Act, 1956 and it should be passed by the members of the Company in general meeting as conferred by the Section 94(2). An ordinary resolution for Subdivision of shares: "RESOLVED THAT pursuant to the provisions of section 94 and other applicable provisions, if any, of the Companies Act, 1956 the consent be and is hereby accorded for sub-division of every equity share of Rs.10/- each into two equity shares of Rs.5/- each". Consequent to this you need to alter the Capital clause of MOA and file form 5.

Thanks a lot..
