Incorporation of a Private Company
Issue Of Share Capital
After obtaining registration, the company proceeds with its business for which it requires funds. A private company cannot raise funds from the public; the capital is to be raised by way of private arrangements viz. from among the family members, relatives and friends, But first of all the company will issue shares to the subscribers to its memorandum and other members of the company. The issued capital must not exceed the authorized capital of the company. If a company wants to issue capital more than its authorized capital, it has to first raise, its authorized capital by passing a special/ordinary resolution (as prescribed in the Articles) and applying in Form No. 5-alongwith additional registration fee, before the ROC.
