Leadership & Ownership, Legally Managed
Changing directors or shareholders in your company isn’t just an internal decision—it requires structured resolutions, updated records, and strict adherence to MCA guidelines. From resignation and appointments to share transfers or new allotments, every change has a process.
At Lekshmi N Iyer & Associates, we guide you through each step, ensuring the ROC filings and internal resolutions align with Companies Act norms.
We assist a wide range of businesses
We also support startups navigating their first equity restructuring or leadership shift.
Why This Matters
Any change in directorship or shareholding must be legally documented and reported. Non-compliance can result in penalties, reputational risk, or legal void in board resolutions. We offer pre-change consultations, prepare all board/shareholder meeting documents, and handle MCA filings like DIR-12, MGT-7A, and PAS-3.
