Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.
2. “Social responsibility (is the) responsibility of an
organisation for the impacts of its decisions and
activities on society and the environment through
transparent and ethical behaviour that is
consistent with sustainable development,
including the health and welfare of society; takes
into account the expectations of stakeholders; is
in compliance with applicable law and consistent
with international norms of behaviour; and is
integrated throughout the organisation.”

3. ISO 26000 is the international standard
developed to help organizations effectively
assess and address those social responsibilities
that are relevant and significant to their mission
and vision; operations and processes;
customers, employees, communities, and other
stakeholders; and environmental impact.

4. ISO 26000:2010 provides guidance rather than
requirements, so it cannot be certified to unlike
some other well-known ISO standards. Instead,
it helps clarify what social responsibility is, helps
businesses and organizations translate principles
into effective actions and shares best practices
relating to social responsibility, globally.

• Internal Dimension: This focuses on
organisational practices with respect to
internal stakeholders that should be aligned to
corporate social responsibility standards and
international norms of business practices..
• External Dimension: This focuses on an
organisations practices towards external
stakeholders. This should be in accordance
with corporate social responsibility standards
and international norms of business practices.
13. “There is no way to avoid paying serious attention to
corporate citizenship: The costs of failing are simply
too high…There are countless win-win opportunities
waiting to be discovered: Every activity in a firm’s
value chain overlaps in some way with social factors
– everything from how you buy or procure to how
you do your research – yet very few companies have
thought about this. The goal is to leverage your
company’s unique capabilities in supporting social
causes, and improve your competitive context at the
same time. The job of today’s leaders is to stop being
defensive and start thinking systematically about
corporate responsibility.”
- Professor Michael Porter, Harvard Business School

19. CSR versus Law
Organisations tend to choose between legal
compliance mentality and ethical compliance
mentality.
Legal compliance mentality focuses on observance of
