Dear Sakshi ,
pass the Board resolution for issue of preference shares and take the approval of members in EGM then file form no.2 and 23 for effect of the resolution for passing.

Hi
In addition to above suggestion, please also refer to the provision contained in the Articles of Association of the Company. Further, as per my understanding, Authorised share capital is also required to be bifurcated in Equity and Preference share capital. This will need passing of required resolution in General meeting.
Views of other members are welcomes.

Thanks a lot for your suggestions.
But in case if a listed Company wants to issue preference shares, then what will be the process??

For preference share, compliance of section 81A will suffice.

For issuance of Preference Shares.
First of all, Authorised Share Capital is to be bifurcated accordingly.
Stock Exchange is to be properly informed.
Just to follow Section 81(1A) and obtain approval of shareholders.
Properly set out the terms and conditions for issuance and redemption of preference share capital.
Hold Board Meeting and allot preference shares.

By Bifurcation you mean that we will have to convert part of equity share into preference shares???

Dear Sakshi,
Yes you are right. Unless the part of Authorised Capital does not contain Preference Shares, you can not issue Preference Shares.

Dear Dewang Rajpal ji,
There is no such standard or formula. If the Company has 10 crore or any amount of Authorised Capital it can be fully or partly equity or preference or in any combination thereof.
The standard debt equity ratio is 2:1 however, that too does not affect the issue of preference shares.
