can anyone share the format of ballot paper for AGM?

Our Articles demands that all the resolutions at the general meetings shall be voted by way of poll and not by show of hands.

Are there any guidelines for the same other than those in 179 to 185 of the Companies Act ?

-----------------------------------------
The right to demand a poll does not exist at common law. Section 170 creates a statutory right to demand a poll and a public company or private company which is a subsidiary of public company can not, but a private company which is not a subsidiary of public company can, by its articles exclude this right.

However, if the power of demanding a poll is given by the articles, same should be adhered
