Every company has to hold AGM Except one person company. the time limit for the holding of the AGM is supposed to calculate a total of three-time limits.
AGM Time Limit
- Two AGM gap between should not be more than 15 months.
- AGM has to be held within 6 months from the last day on which you ended the financial year.
- We must have a minimum of 1 AGM in every calendrer year. in case we are unable to hold the AGM within this such time, we can go to the ROC registrar of the company, and we can ask for an extension of a maximum of 3 months.
In case we hold the first AGM but AGM we have only a one-time limit and we have to hold the first AGM within 9 months from the end of the year. generally, you get 6 months from the end of the year but if you want for extension then you can go to the ROC, so the last to last for the first AGM holding period is 9 Months.
Where Should You Hold The AGM
The company is listed that is listed on a recognized stock exchange. The listed company will hold the AGM in the Register office or either any other place but must be in the same city, town, village where the registered office is situated.
If the company is an unlisted company it means is not listed on a recognized stock exchange. you can have in the Register office or you can have in any other place but the same city, town, village where the register office is situated or you can have anywhere else but in India, you need the prior consent of all the members.
