Dear All Professionals,

While going though Schedule I of Companies related with MOA and AOA .  There is change in the format of MOA and AOA. Mainly changes Table C and Table F.  Whether existing Companies need to change/alter MOA and AOA ?  As of my opinion, every Company has to change/alter MOA and AOA.  I remembered that when there was amendment came in year 2002, every Company had changed AOA.

Kindly guide us.

Dear Mayank,

Yes. Even I feel all the Companies need to align their MOA and AOA with the new Act, 2013. Some clarification required from MCA on the time period within which it has to be carried out. Also old statutory registers have to be discarded and new registers have be replaced.

Warm Regards

Hi Vivek 

I do not think so because if you see the definition of Memorandum and Articles, they used the word as follows:

as originally framed or as altered from time to time or applied in pursuance of any previous company law or of this Act; 

If you interpret the above lines, the Companies Act, 2013 will not mandate the Companies to amend their MOA & AOA.

Dear Parameshwar,

Yes. I agree with you to some extent.

Section 5 (9) relating to articles says 'nothing in this section shall apply to the articles of a company registered under any previous company law unless amended under this Act.

That mean if you propose to alter the articles for any reason under the provisions of CA 2013, they you have to comply with Section 5.

Hi Vivek

Correct...According to my understanding, if we are amending the existing Articles of Memorandum after 1st April, 2014 for any reason, we need to incorporate all the changes required under the new Act otherwise no need of amendment only to incorporate the provisions of new Act.

Dear friends,
You both are correct.  It means that if you alter any article now, the Company need to change whole set of AOA otherwise no need to change AOA

Please clarify.

Dear Sir,

According to my view, we have to amend the AOA now. Because many provisions like definition of private company, borrowing powers, video conference meetings, AGM, EGM etc. have to be amended or added in AOA as per new Companies Act. 

MOA can continue as it is unless there's a change in any of its Clauses.

Hi,

As the Act overrides memorandum, articles etc. as per Sec. 6, it is not necessary to alter.

Dear Professionals,

I have query regarding MOA and AOA.

I have filled incorporation documents. Yesterday Form INC 7 came for resubmission.and the issue was that Witness should be in proper language. Today I met at concerned person to ROC and he provide the witness matter.
My query is When the subscriber will signed the Subscriber sheet again then the date should be of today's or the same date which I write earlier. If I write today's date then whether there will be any issue if the other documents are of earlier date.

Thanks in Advance

Regards,
