### Procedure for Issuing Equity Shares Under the Companies Act, 2013

- **Terms of Issuance:** Define the terms, such as the mode of payment, rights attached to the shares, and any preferential terms.

3. **Prepare and File a Prospectus (if applicable):**
- **Private Placement:** If the shares are being issued through private placement, a private placement offer letter (also known as the offer letter or application form) must be issued to selected individuals or entities.
- **Prospectus:** Not required for private companies but essential for public companies or in the case of an initial public offering (IPO).

4. **Issue Share Application Form:**

7. **Issue Share Certificates:**

8. **Maintain Records:**
- **Minutes of Meetings:** Maintain the minutes of the board meeting where the allotment resolution was passed and any general meetings if applicable.
- **Other Records:** Keep records of the share applications, allotment letters, and other related documents.

9. **File Annual Return:**

- **Section 42:** Governs private placement of shares.
- **Section 62:** Governs further issue of shares and rights issue.
- **Section 63:** Deals with the issue of shares at a discount.
