Hi Sumit,
In case of an unlisted Company the Company can keep the books closed for a maximum period of 45 days and maximum 30 days at a time including the date of AGM. There is no minimum period specified for Book Closure FOR UNLISTED COMPANY, As Section 154 makes it optional for Unlisted Company.
Thanks & Regards
