  2. Ankita Jain says:

    Dear Sir,
    Please confirm if Form MGT-14 is required to be filed for grant of ESOPs in excess of 1% of issued capital to any particular employee in a particular year. The act specifies passing of seperate resolution for the same. Would this trigger filing of Form MGT-14?

  6. Ranjith says:

    As per my understanding if a new auditor is appointed, after the term of 5 years, in place of retiring auditor (who is eligible for re-appointment) a special resolution need to passed in the AGM as per Section 139 (9).

    Form MGT-14 needs to be filed for appointment of auditor in this case.

    Please correct me if I am wrong. Hope you will reply.

  8. SURAJIT CHANDA says:

    1. Whether a State Government Company having 3(Three) Shareholders is a Public Ltd. Company or a Pvt Ltd Company?

    2. Further, whether the required resolutions being approved in the Board/General Meeting will have to be filed with the ROC through MGT-14?

    My question, if we invest in Mutual Funds and pass respective board resolution, is it required to file MGT 14

  10. Ash says:

    My qwery is that whether special resolution is required for splitting shares of nominal value of rs. 100 to rs. 10. & If AoA allows by ordinary resolution to subdivide shares, then is it necessary to fileMGT 14 .

  11. C.B.Prabhumirashi says:

    Sir

    I have gone through your article.

    I have one query over the issue of securities (equity shares) of just newly incorporated private limited company & this company wants to issue its equity shares to its members. As per your article, it seems that this private limited company is not required to file mgt-14 to MCA.

    Is it correct interpretation of your article?

    Can you please post your reply to following e-mail id?

    Waiting for your reply.

  12. LOHIT BAGARIA says:

    is it mandatory to file Mgt-14 for approval of accounts of a section 8 public company?
    What if it has lapsed 300 days for filing it?

  13. Ramani Vaidhyanathan says:

    The article itself is contradictory. in One place it says KMP appointment the MGT 14 tobe filed in another in annexure C it says the same is not required. kindly confirm. Does it mean that that for pvt ltd company appointment of WTD form mgt14 not required.

  14. Rahul Chandratre says:

    Whether MGT 14 is required for a public limited company if internal auditor is appointed even though the appointment was not mandatory ?

  15. Tanu says:

    As far as I have read the Act, the resolutions under Annexure C not required to be filed in MGT-14, it is unnecessarily mentioned. If the same is required, please quote sections

  16. Nitin Naresh says:

    Dear Divesh Goyal,

    As per your advice you have suggested to file MGT-14 for the Ordinary Resolution under Annexure -C where if a Company increase its authorised capital by way of ordinary resolution.
