of a separate legal entity. In a <strong>Memorandum of Association (MOA)<\/strong>, the first clause deals with the name of the limited company, from which it is recognized in the Public domain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the <strong>global business market<\/strong>, compromise, arrangements and restructuring play a crucial role in satisfying the <strong>changing business<\/strong> needs by mixing the strengths of two or more companies. Therefore, businesses must embrace changes to sustain in the corporate sector; otherwise,they would not only lose the competitive edge but would fail to meet the needs of their loyal customers as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The term\u201c<strong>change<\/strong>\u201d denotes the change in the company\u2019s name or change in activities. A company needs to <strong>obtain the prior consent<\/strong> of its shareholder in the general meeting before undertaking the process of any change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As per <strong>Section 13 of the Companies Act, 2013<\/strong>, a company needs to obtain the prior consent of its shareholders by passing a special resolution in the General Meeting. After that, it needs to alter its <strong>MOA (Memorandum of Association)<\/strong> to undergo the process of change of name of the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Provisions_Applicable_to_the_Change_of_Name_of_the_Company\"><\/span>Provisions Applicable to the Change of Name of the Company<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The provisions of the <strong>Companies Act, 2013<\/strong>, applicable to the <strong>procedure for change of the name of the company<\/strong> can be summarised as: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Section 13 (2) and (6)<\/strong>: A company is eligible to change its name by passing an <strong>SR (Special Resolution)<\/strong> in the general meeting and under the written permission of the Central Government.
