Change Object Clause of Company MOA
Modify your company’s main object or business activity legally with CompanyJi. We help with board resolution, shareholder approval, MGT-14 filing, altered MOA drafting, ROC compliance and complete documentation for change in object clause.
Change Object Clause Without ROC Objection or Drafting Risk.
Changing the object clause is not just a wording update. It affects the company’s legal powers, future invoices, licences, bank records, GST profile, due diligence and investor documentation.
Before filing, we check whether your new activity fits your MOA.
Many companies start a new vertical, apply for licences, receive investor funds or change business model without updating the object clause. That creates due diligence and compliance risk.

Your Company Can Only Carry Activities Permitted by Its MOA.
If your company is entering a new line of business, your Memorandum of Association should clearly permit it. A properly drafted object clause protects founders, directors, investors and customers.
Start a new business activity
Add a new product, service, trading line, technology activity, finance activity or operational vertical.
Bank and loan documentation
Banks often check whether the proposed activity is authorised by the MOA before sanction or onboarding.
Investor due diligence
Investors review object clauses before funding, ESOP structuring, acquisition or share subscription.
GST and licence alignment
Government registrations and licences should match the company’s authorised business objects.
Director protection
Proper approval reduces risk of ultra vires activity and improves governance records.
Clean ROC records
MGT-14 filing creates official ROC record of the altered MOA and shareholder approval.
Who Can Apply for Object Clause Change?
