Certificate of Commencement of

Business: Procedural Analysis

This Article is in continuation to my previous Article titled “PROCEDURES FOR INCORPORATION

AND REGISTRATION OF COMPANIES”.Kindly excuse me if you fine any typing error.

The date of incorporation of a company may not be the date of commencement of business. A

private company and a public limited company not having share capital are not required to

comply with any other formalities and may commence its business activities immediately after

obtaining the certificate of incorporation from the concerned Registrar of Companies.

A private limited company, which has converted into public limited company, is also not

required to obtain certificate of commencement of business.

Requirement for obtaining commencement of business certificate

A public limited company having share capital cannot commence business until it has obtained

the certificate to commence business (COB) from the concerned Registrar of Companies.

Normally a new company will comply with the required formalities and obtain the

commencement of business certificate (COB) from the Registrar as soon as possible after

formation because it cannot commence any business activities or exercise its borrowing powers

without it.

ACTION REQUIRED ON THE PART OF THE COMPANY TO OBTAIN COB (Refer Section 149)

1. WHERE A COMPANY NOT ISSUES PROSPECTUS FOR PUBLIC SUBSCRIPTION

For obtaining a certificate to commence business, the following actions are required to be

taken:—

(i ) the company shall file with the Registrar a statement in lieu of prospectus (SLP) (signed by

every director) electronically at the MCA portal in the form given in Schedule III to Act

together with the E-Form 62 and shall pay the prescribed fee by online or offline as per

Schedule X of the Companies Act, 1956.

(ii ) the directors should pay the value of the shares to the extent money is payable in cash with

application/allotment;

(iii ) a duly certified declaration shall be filed electronically at the MCA portal in the E-Form 20

and a stamped copy shall be simultaneously filed with the Registrar signed by a

8/12/2019 B.L 3 .SHUBHAM


director/secretary or by secretary in practice where there is no secretary, to the effect that

the requirements of section 149(2) have been complied with.

(iv ) the company shall not allot any share or debenture at least for three days after filing of

statement in lieu of prospectus with the Registrar. [Section 70(1)];

(v ) the company shall pay the prescribed filing fee by online or offline under Schedule X on SLP

and on e-Form 20 to the Registrar of Companies.

The Registrar of Companies shall then issue the requisite certificate of commencement of

business.

NATURE OF ABOVE REQUIREMENTS

It was decided in the case of Malabar Iron & Steel Works Ltd. v Registrar of Companies (1963)

that COB cannot be issued if the company has not complied with the provisions of section

149(1), even though it has issued a SLP u/s 70.

2. WHERE A COMPANY ISSUES PROSPECTUS FOR PUBLIC SUBSCRIPTION

Where a company issues a prospectus immediately after its formation, it need not file a

statement in lieu of prospectus. The following points have to be ensured in this connection:—

(i ) shares arranging the amount at least equal to the amount of minimum subscription under

section 69 have been allotted. [Section 149(1)(a)]

(ii ) every director has paid to the company, in respect of shares taken or contracted to be taken

by them subject to payment in cash, a sum equal to at least the amount payable on

application and allotment on the shares offered to public for subscription. [Section

149(1)(b)];

(iii ) application has to be made to the recognised stock exchange for obtaining permission for

dealing in shares/debentures;

(iv ) filing of following documents electronically with the ROC is necessary:--

(a) prospectus;

(b) E-Form 19 duly certified by a director/secretary or by secretary in whole time

practice where there is no secretary declaring that all the conditions as stated in (i ) to

(iii ), above have been duly fulfilled and stamped copy shall be physically delivered

simultaneously to the Registrar.

(v ) payment of prescribed filing fee under Schedule X on prospectus and E-Form 19 by online or

off line system.

The Registrar of Companies shall thereupon issue the requisite certificate of commencement of

business.

8/12/2019 B.L 3 .SHUBHAM


Certificate to commence business is conclusive evidence

The Registrar, on perusal of the declaration in e-Form 19 or 20 and the statement in lieu of

prospectus, as may be applicable, shall certify that the company is entitled to commence

business and to exercise borrowing powers. The certificate shall be the conclusive evidence that

the company is entitled to commence its business. [ Refer Section 149(6)]

STATUS OF CONTRACTS

Status of Contracts made before or after incorporation but before obtaining the COB

Only after obtaining the certificate of incorporation a public company can enter into binding

contracts. After obtaining certificate of incorporation but before obtaining certificate for

commencement of business, the company may, however, enter into PROVISIONAL CONTRACTS subject to the condition that they will be binding only after the company has obtained the

commencement certificate.

It was decided in the case of Merchants Ltd., Lahore, In re (1932) and Ambica Textiles Ltd., In

re (1950) that the liabilities incurred by company before it is entitled to commence business,

are not binding and shareholders cannot be asked to contribute towards them in event of

winding up.

Consequences on commencing business before obtaining certificate to

commence business

If any public company commences business or exercises borrowing powers without

obtaining the commencement certificate, every person who is responsible for the

contravention shall be punishable with fine of Rs. 5,000 for every day during which the

contravention continues, under sub-sections (2A) and (6) of section 149 of the

Companies Act, 1956.

Also refer 433(c) which provides that a company may be wound up by the High Court (Tribunal)

if it does not commence business within a year from its incorporation or suspends its business

activities for a whole year.

PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING CERTIFICATE OF COMMENCEMENT OF BUSINESS

In order to obtain COB, a public company shall file the following documents with the Registrar

of Companies as desired by section 149:—

Introduction

The Companies Act, 1956

The Companies Act 1956 is an Act of the Parliament of India, enacted in 1956,

which enabled companies to be formed by registration, and set out the

responsibilities of companies, their directors and secretaries.[1]

The Companies Act 1956 is administered by the Government of India through the

Ministry of Corporate Affairs and the Offices of Registrar of Companies, Official

Liquidators, Public Trustee, Company Law Board, Director of Inspection, etc. The

Registrar of Companies (ROC) handles incorporation of new companies and the

administration of running companies.

Since its commencement, it has been amended many times, in which amendment

of 1988, 1990, 1996, 2000 and 2011 are notable.

The following are the main characteristics and distinctivefeatures of a company form of enterprise

1. An Association of Persons:

At least two persons or seven persons must come together to form a private or a public

company respectively. A single individual cannot constitute a company. This is the reason why a

company is called on Association of Persons.

2. Incorporated Association:

A company comes into existence only after a certificate of incorporation has been obtained

from the Registrar of Joint Stock Companies. Without incorporation, it has no legal existence.

3. Artificial Legal Person:

A company is an artificial person created by law to achieve the objectives for which it is formed.

A company exists only in the contemplation of law. It is artificial person in the sense that it is

created by a process other than natural birth and does not possess the physical attributes of a

natural person.

It is invisible, intangible, immortal and exists only in the eyes of law. It has no body, no soul and

no conscience; it is regarded as an artificial person.

4. Distinct Legal Entity:

A company is a legal person having a juristic personality entirely distinct and independent of the

individual persons who are its members. It enjoys in many respects the right of a natural person

in the eyes of law.

It can own property, conduct a lawful business, enter into contracts with others, buy, sell and

hold property, all in its own name under its own seal. It can file a suit against others and can be

sued against.

5. Perpetual Succession:

A company has perpetual existence i.e. its existence is not affected by the death or lunacy or

insolvency or retirement of its member.

Members may come and go, but the company continues its operations so long as it fulfils the

requirements of the law under which it has been formed. Thus, a company has a perpetual

succession irrespective of its membership.

6. Limited Liability:

Liability of members of a limited company is limited to the face value of the shares

subscribed by each of them. Members cannot be asked to pay anything more than what is due

or unpaid on the shares of the company held by them.

In no case the personal property of the members of a company can be attached to

satisfy the claims of creditors of a company.

7. Transferability of Shares:

Members of a public limited company are free to transfer the shares held by them to any one

members for either to purchase or sell the shares.

8/12/2019 B.L 3 .SHUBHAM


8. Diffused Ownership:

Ownership of a company is in the hands of a large number of people. In case of Private Ltd.

Company, the upper limit is up to 50. In case of a public Ltd. Company there is upper limit to

the number of members.

Any individual is free to acquire the share of any company and become to the owner to that

extent only. As such ownership is spread among a number of share holders.

9. Separation of ownership and management:

Share holders are the owners of the company. Company’s share holders are widely

scattered. It is physically impossible for all of them to take patty in the management of the

company.

Being a share holder of a company does not give him the right to manage the affairs of a

company. The management is vested with the directors, who are the legal representatives of

the shareholders. Thus owners of the company have no direct control over the management of

the company.

10. Common Seal:

A company being an artificial person cannot sign documents for itself whereas a natural person

can do. The law has provided for the use of a common seal, with the name of the company

engraved on it, as substitute for its signature.

The common seal of the company is approved in the first Board Meeting held immediately

after the incorporation. Common seal has to be affixed on all important documents and

contracts.

Any document bearing the common seal of the company duly signed by at least two directors

will be legally binding on the company.

11. Corporate Finance:

A company generally raises large amount of funds in form of issuing shares, debentures, bonds

and incurring loans and advances from financial institutions. The total share capital of a

company is divided into a number of shares which are held by individual members and

institutions.

12. Object clause of Business:

A company can conduct only such business as stated in its first Memorandum of Association. In

order to bring any charges in its activity, the object clause must be changed.

8/12/2019 B.L 3 .SHUBHAM
