Change in Authorised Capital for Delhi Companies

📌 TL;DR - Change in Authorised Capital in Delhi Services at a Glance

Changing authorised capital (increase, consolidation, sub-division, cancellation) under Section 61 requires: AOA verification, Board Meeting, EGM with Ordinary Resolution to alter Clause V of MOA, SH-7 filing with ROC NCT Delhi & Haryana on MCA V3 within 30 days, stamp duty (Delhi ~0.15%), and MCA Master Data update. MGT-14 only if AOA needs amendment. Company must be ACTIVE COMPLIANT. 7-15 working days. Patron manages from Delhi.

Delhi NCR is home to thousands of private limited companies and startups needing capital changes - pre-fundraising (VC/PE/Angel), ESOP, rights issue, bonus issue, debt conversion, restructuring.

Content is reviewed quarterly for accuracy.

Authorised Capital: Definition and Significance

Authorised capital (S.2(8)) is the maximum share capital a company can issue per its MOA Clause V. A company cannot issue shares beyond this ceiling. When paid-up approaches the limit and more shares are needed (fundraising, ESOP, bonus, conversion), authorised capital must be increased first.

Distinct from paid-up capital: authorised is the ceiling (maximum CAN issue), paid-up is actual shares issued and paid for. Increasing authorised does NOT impact balance sheet, net worth, or financials - only changes MOA and creates headroom for future issuance.

Takes legal effect when ROC approves SH-7 and MCA Master Data is updated. Patron handles the complete process for Delhi companies.

Key Terms for Change in Authorised Capital in Delhi:

S.61: Alteration of share capital: increase, consolidation, sub-division, conversion, cancellation. Ordinary Resolution.

SH-7: Notice to ROC within 30 days. e-MOA module on MCA V3. Stamp duty paid electronically.

Clause V (MOA): Capital Clause specifying authorised amount and share structure. Altered by resolution.

Stamp Duty (Delhi): ~0.15% of increased capital. State-specific. Paid via MCA portal.

Section 61 Capital Change

When Delhi Companies Need Capital Change

Pre-fundraising (VC/PE/Angel) - Sufficient authorised capital for new equity shares before share subscription agreements.
ESOP Implementation - Pool of shares for employee options requires authorised headroom.
Rights Issue / Bonus Issue - Additional shares to existing shareholders require capital headroom.
Debt-to-Equity Conversion - Converting loans to equity (S.62(3)) needs authorised capital for new shares.
