The promoter whose name is given in MOA & AOA subscriber sheet is basically called as promoters and they can not be changed life time of the company.
Such subscriber page can not be changed as per Companies Act, 1956.
SEBI definitions generally not apply on that company. However this definition only inclusive purpose.

Again i said, name of the promoter mentioned in MOA & AOA can not be changed. You can so any provision under Companies Act, 1956. Changing provision will be governed under Companies Act, 1956.
