Change in Authorised Capital in Pune - Overview

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

Changing authorised capital involves amending the Capital Clause (Clause V) of the MOA under Section 61 of the Companies Act, 2013. Process: (1) board resolution to convene EGM, (2) 21-day EGM notice, (3) ordinary resolution to increase capital, (4) file MGT-14 with ROC Pune within 30 days, (5) file SH-7 with ROC fees and Maharashtra stamp duty within 30 days, (6) update MOA/AOA. Maharashtra stamp duty: Rs 1,000 per Rs 5 lakh increase (max Rs 50 lakh). ROC fees based on new total authorised capital. Timeline: 7-15 business days.

Pune is home to thousands of companies needing periodic capital increases. Baner and Kharadi startups raise seed/Series A funding requiring capital increase before share issuance. Hinjewadi IT subsidiaries receive equity infusions from parent companies. MIDC manufacturers at Bhosari and Chakan expand operations. Camp trading companies bring in new partners. Each triggers the EGM-to-SH-7 filing sequence with ROC fees and Maharashtra stamp duty. Learn more about Change in Authorised Capital across India.

Maharashtra stamp duty is Rs 1,000 per Rs 5 lakh of increase (or part thereof), capped at Rs 50 lakh - a state-specific calculation many Pune companies get wrong. File on MCA portal (mca.gov.in). Related: Pvt Ltd Registration in Pune and Annual ROC Filing in Pune.

What Is Change in Authorised Capital?

Authorised capital is the maximum share capital a company can issue, specified in Clause V of the MOA under Section 2(8). Change in authorised capital is the process of increasing or decreasing this limit by amending the MOA through shareholder resolution and ROC filing.

Under Section 61(1), a company can: increase authorised capital, consolidate shares, convert shares to stock, sub-divide shares, or cancel unissued shares. The most common for Pune companies is increasing capital to issue more shares. Related: Share Allotment and ITR for Companies in Pune.

Key Prerequisite: The AOA must contain a provision authorising the increase. Most standard AOAs include this. If not, the AOA must first be amended by special resolution (75% majority) before proceeding.

Key Terms for Change in Authorised Capital in Pune:

  • Section 61: Power to alter share capital by ordinary resolution at general meeting
  • Form SH-7: Notice to ROC of capital alteration, filed within 30 days with fees and stamp duty
  • Form MGT-14: Filing of resolution with ROC within 30 days of EGM
  • Clause V MOA: Capital Clause specifying authorised share capital amount and breakup
  • Maharashtra Stamp Duty: Rs 1,000 per Rs 5 lakh increase (or part thereof), max Rs 50 lakh

File SH-7 on mca.gov.in within 30 days of resolution. Provide: CIN, alteration type, original and new capital, breakup, SRN of MGT-14. Pay ROC fees (differential based on new capital) and Maharashtra stamp duty (Rs 1,000 per Rs 5 lakh, max Rs 50 lakh) electronically. DSC required.

Step 6

Documents Required for Capital Change in Pune

  • Current MOA and AOA: Existing Memorandum (Clause V showing current capital) and Articles.
  • Board Resolution: Minutes approving increase and calling EGM.
  • EGM Notice with Explanatory Statement: 21-day notice with proposed resolution and reasons.
  • Ordinary Resolution (Certified): Passed at EGM with simple majority, signed by chairman.
  • Amended MOA (Clause V): Updated Capital Clause showing new authorised capital and share breakup.
  • DSC of Authorised Director: Valid Class 3 Digital Signature Certificate.
  • CIN and Company Details: Corporate ID, registered office, PAN.

Pune-specific tip: Maharashtra companies must pay stamp duty electronically via MCA portal. The portal auto-calculates based on state of registration and increase amount. Ensure registered office state is correctly shown as Maharashtra on MCA master data before filing SH-7 - wrong state coding results in incorrect stamp duty.
