Overview - increase in authorized share capital Registration

What is it?

Authorised Share Capital is the maximum share capital a company is authorised to issue under its Memorandum of Association (MOA). When a company wants to issue new shares beyond its current authorised limit - for funding, ESOPs, or restructuring - it must first increase the Authorised Share Capital via shareholder resolution and ROC filing.

Forms involved

SH-7 (Notice of Alteration of Share Capital) · MGT-14 (Filing of Resolution with ROC) · MOA Amendment (Clause V) · These are filed after a shareholder resolution (Ordinary Resolution in most cases) is passed at an EGM or AGM.

Authorised vs Paid-Up Capital

Authorised Share Capital is the ceiling - the maximum shares the company can issue. Paid-Up Capital is what has actually been issued and paid for. The authorised capital must always be equal to or higher than the paid-up capital.

Cost of increase

Increasing authorised capital attracts additional stamp duty (state-specific) and ROC filing fees calculated as a percentage of the incremental capital. We calculate the exact cost before filing.

Who Usually Requires This?

The Increase in Authorized Share Capital solution matches perfectly with these profiles:

  • Profile
  • Why It Applies
  • Profile
  • Why It Applies
  • Companies raising equity funding from investors
  • Investors require new shares to be issued as consideration for their investment. If the existing authorised capital is fully or nearly exhausted, it must be increased before new shares can be issued.
  • Companies implementing ESOP schemes
  • Employee Stock Option Plans (ESOPs) require a pool of authorised but unissued shares. An ESOP scheme typically requires increasing authorised capital to create sufficient headroom for future option exercises.
  • Companies converting debt to equity
  • Convertible notes, compulsorily convertible debentures (CCDs), and other debt instruments convert to equity at a future date - requiring authorised capital headroom for the conversion.
  • Companies approaching the authorised capital ceiling
  • When paid-up capital approaches the authorised limit, any future share allotment - for any purpose - will be blocked. Proactive increase maintains flexibility for future capital actions.
