Patron Accounting's Delhi office manages complete name change: trademark search, RUN, resolution drafting, MGT-14 and INC-24 filing, fresh COI tracking, and all post-change updates. Integrated with ROC compliance and company registration for complete management.

Content is reviewed quarterly for accuracy.

Company Name Change: Legal Process Under Section 13

Name change alters Clause I of MOA, requires ROC approval (representing Central Government), and results in fresh COI (INC-25). Effective only after fresh COI issued - company must NOT use new name before this date.

A name change does NOT create a new entity. CIN, PAN, TAN, all rights, obligations, contracts, assets, liabilities continue. All legal proceedings and agreements continue under the new name. But all registrations must be updated post-COI.

Post-change updates: PAN card, GST certificate, bank accounts, statutory registers, company seal, letterheads, signage. Patron coordinates everything for Delhi companies.

Key Terms for Change in Name of Company in Delhi:

RUN: Reserve Unique Name. Rs 1,000. 1 proposed + 1 alternative. Reserved 20 days. Trademark pre-check essential.

Special Resolution: 75% majority at EGM. Higher threshold than OR for capital changes.

MGT-14: Special Resolution filing + linked e-MOA (INC-33) + e-AOA (INC-34). Within 30 days.

INC-24/INC-25: Name change application → ROC issues fresh COI with new name, same CIN.
