The ‘authorized share capital’ of a company  is the maximum amount of share capital that the company is authorised by its Memorandum of Association (a constitutional document of the company)  to issue to general public (in case of first issue) or existing shareholders (in case of further issue of shares) . Beyond this limit, the company can not issue shares to the public. Part of the authorised capital generally remains unissued. This number can be changed by shareholders' approval in their general meeting.  The part of the authorised capital which has been issued to shareholders is referred to as the ‘issued share capital’ of the company and  when the shareholders subscribe shares which have been issued, that share capital is called as the ‘subscribed share capital’.
