Section 165(1) provides that a company which is obliged to hold statutory meeting shall within a period of not less than one month and not more than six month from the date at which the company is entitled to commence business shall hold a meeting of its members which shall be specified as Statutory Meeting.
The date of entitlement of commencement of business shall be considered as the date of certificate to commence business issued by the Registrar of Companies under section 149 of the Companies Act, 1956.

But the question here arises that why to hold the EGM. The company may hold Statutory meeting and can pass the resolutions in such Statutory Meeting as all the members will be present and the agenda in respect of resolutions can be sent along with notice but not to hold such meeting before one month of getting the certificate of commencement.
