Dear Madhura
Yes. The Annual General meeting may be called after giving shorter notice in Form 22A prescribed under the Companies (Central Government) General Rules & Forms 1956 - by all the shareholders of the company by way of consent.

Dear Sir,
my qustion is regarding % of consent.
if we get 75% consent to short notice will that be fine?

Dear Madhura.
According to section 171(2) (i) - we should get consent of all members (100%) in case of Annual General Meeting to be held by shorter notice.
Section 171(2) (ii) - In other General Meetings can be held by shorter notice if consent given by members not less than 95% of total voting power.
