What is authorised capital?
Authorised capital is the maximum share capital a company may issue, as stated in its MOA. A company cannot issue shares beyond it – so before allotting shares to founders, investors or employees (for example under an ESOP), it often needs to increase authorised capital first.
The process
- Board meeting to approve the increase and call a general meeting.
- Shareholder resolution at a general meeting, as required by the company’s articles.
- Altered MOA with the new capital clause.
- Form SH-7 filed with the ROC within 30 days, with the ROC fee and stamp duty on the increase.
Our service
We draft the notices, resolutions and altered MOA and file SH-7. Allotting shares after the increase? We can also help with the share allotment filings and a valuation report where needed.
