Alteration of Authorized Share Capital

A limited company having a share capital may, if so authorized by its articles, alter its MOA in its general meeting to: a. Increase its authorized share capital; b. Consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into shares of a larger amount; c. Convert all or any of its fully paid-up shares into stock, and reconvert that stock into fully paid-up shares of any denomination; d. Sub-divide its shares, or any of them, into shares of smaller amount; and e. Cancel shares which, at the date of the passing of the resolution in that behalf, have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person, and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled. The need to increase the authorized capital may arise when the company is planning to expand its operations by fresh issue of capital. Any change in the Authorized Capital will involve alteration of the bye-laws of the Company.
