Dear Members,
MCA in its General Circular No.15/2013 Dated 13.09.2013 that in respect of 98 notified sections - clarifications are given only to Sections 2(68), 102, 133 & 130. Whereas in respect of private company - it is only for companies being registered after 12th September 2013.i.e., newly incorporated companies to have 200 members. it is NOT MANDATORY for existing companies to amend their Articles. If you refer Circular No. 16 /2013 Dated 18 .09.2013 MCA clarified that with effect from 12.09.203 the relevant provisions of the companies Act, 1956, which correspond to provisions of 98 sections of the companies Act, 2013 brought into force on 12.09.2013, cease to have effect from that date. However, MCA has not told what are the 'corresponding provisions' of old act. It may be possible to make an analysis of old act and new act and it will only serve the academic interest. practically it is not possible to find the 'corresponding provisions'
