Thresholds · G.S.R. 880(E)

Small-company limits raised to ₹10 crore and ₹100 crore

G.S.R. 880(E) substitutes rule 2(1)(t) of the Companies (Specification of definition details) Rules, 2014. For section 2(85), paid-up capital shall not exceed ₹10 crore and turnover shall not exceed ₹100 crore. The notification amends only that rule. It does not rewrite the Act. A public company is outside section 2(85). The proviso still excludes a holding company, a subsidiary, a section 8 company, and a company or body corporate governed by a special Act.

Before

The note in this gazette says the rules were last amended by G.S.R. 700(E) dated 15 September 2022. This PDF does not restate the figures in that earlier notification.

After

Paid-up capital not exceeding ₹10 crore, and turnover not exceeding ₹100 crore. The rule uses “respectively”, so the first figure is capital and the second is turnover.

What to do

Re-test every private company and OPC before choosing MGT-7 or MGT-7A for the year, and before assuming Rule 9B demat applies.
