Yes , a company can re-classify its preference shares in to equity. there is no restrictive section in the companies Act.

Thanks for the reply Sir

But the ROC has marked the form for re-submission with the following remarks-

No conversion/re-classification of Equity Shares into Preference Shares or vice. versa has been permitted under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 (even not provided in Section 61 of the Act), therefore, Pl explain why not e-form may be considered for rejection.

Pls Advice the further course of action.

yes it can be reclassify, check your MOA, AOA, which type of authorisation is given to board or members.
other you can reclassify by altering capital clause of moa, and aoa if any repercussion on it.

Dear Experts 

In which Section, reclassification of shares can be done, as the same is not mentioned in Section 61.
