Authorized Capital Increase

Authorized capital is the maximum capital a company can raise, as mentioned in its memorandum. If the company needs more funds to expand, it must increase its authorized capital.
Authorized vs Paid-Up Capital:
Authorized capital is the total value of shares a company can issue, while paid-up capital is the actual value of shares that have been fully paid by shareholders. If the paid-up capital reaches the limit of authorized capital, the company has two options:
1. Increase its authorized capital and issue new shares, or
2. Allow the transfer of shares from existing shareholders to new ones.
Vyapaar Registration can help you navigate these processes smoothly and ensure full compliance!
