Adjourned agm

An AGM of a company was convened in November 2008. It was adjourned and the adjourned meeting was held in march 2009. The next general meeting was held in march 2010. The company was held liable for an irregularity in holding the AGMs. Decide.
The company is guilty of violation of section 96 of the companies Act, 2013.
However, please also read the power of the board to determine the time, date and place of the adjourned meeting.

violation of section

agm should be held within 6 month of fy completion and here not held within 6 months i.e. seo-2008 and for two agm diff of time should be not more than 15 months here no clarification of previous agm so assume this condition fulfil so 1st condition violate.

if company incorporated in 2008 then they can held within 9 months instead of 6 months for first agm.

Following are some points which proves that query is illogical.

1. Why not applied for AGM Extension since due date is September and AGM conducted in November.

2. Even if we believe that conducting AGM in November was due to unforeseen reasons, why it still got adjourned.

3. Still let us believe that AGM got adjourned due to actual reasons, why is adjourned meeting convened so late ?

4. Let us again believe that all the above errors was a coincidence, what is the point of keeping AGM again after due date (i.e September 2009) and keeping in March 2010 !!
