Hi Folks!
Whether notice for a period of 5 years is valid even if charge of suppression, fraud and misstatement are not sustained?
Hi Folks!
Is Secretarial Auditor required to get the notice of Annual General Meeting in which his report is to be laid before the members?
Hello people,
Whether is it mandatory to send notice to a director who has waived off his right to receive notice of a board meeting?
Dear Members,
In terms of proviso to section 101(1) of the Companies Act, 2013 the notice of general meeting may be shorter than 21 days if consent in writing or
electronic mode is given by members entitled to vote at such meetings. Does this mean that if we follow section 101 for obtaining consent of the members to call the general meeting at shorter notice, then it will be possible for the company to send the audited financial statement along with the notice at shorter notice?
