Hi Manoj,

(i) Obtain approval of the Board of directors, preferably at a Board meeting. At the same meeting the Board may consider and fix the date, venue and time for holding a general meeting to obtain the approval of members by special resolution and the Board will approve the notice of the general meeting and explanatory statement to be sent to the members;

(ii) hold a general meeting and get the approval of the members by way of special resolution subject to confirmation by the Company Law Board/Central Government;
