Item No. 2 & 3
The existing Memorandum of Association ("MOA") and Articles of Association ("AOA") of the Company were framed in terms of the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. With the enactment of the Companies Act, 2013 some provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 are no longer in force. Thus, with the coming into force of the Companies Act, 2013, the existing MOA and AOA require alteration in its several clauses. Hence, it is considered expedient to wholly replace the existing MOA and AOA with the new MOA and AOA in line with the new Companies Act, 2013 in continuance of our effort to comply with the provisions of applicable laws in true letter and spirit.
A copy of the proposed MOA and AOA will be available for inspection by the members at the registered office of the company. The members may follow the process for inspection as mentioned in the Notes annexed to this Postal Ballot Notice.
The adoption of MOA & AOA requires the approval of the Shareholders by means of a Special Resolution as per the Companies Act, 2013 and accordingly the approval of the members is being sought through Postal Ballot.
The Board of Directors in its meeting held on August 10, 2022 has accorded its approval for adoption of the MOA & AOA.
None of the Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and their relatives is, in any way, concerned or interested, financially or otherwise, in the said resolutions, except to the extent of their shareholdings in the Company, if any.
The Board of Directors recommends passing of the Special Resolutions set forth in Item No. 2 and 3 of the Postal Ballot Notice by the members of the Company.
