Amend or draft the Memorandum of Association (MoA) and Articles of Association (AoA) to reflect changes in business objectives, capital structure, management rules, or statutory requirements for private and public limited companies.
The Memorandum of Association (MoA) and Articles of Association (AoA) are the core constitutional documents of a company registered under the Companies Act, 2013. The MoA defines the company’s scope, objectives, authorised capital, and registered office, while the AoA governs internal management, decision-making, rights of shareholders, and duties of directors. Any change in business activities, capital structure, ownership rules, or governance framework requires amendment of the MoA, AoA, or both. Amendments must be approved by shareholders through resolutions and filed with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) to be legally valid. This service covers drafting, amendment, and ROC filing for both Private Limited and Public Limited Companies.
