Nomenclature of various forms prescribed under the provisions ofCompanies Act, 2013

In order to facilitate easy understanding of the e-forms being rolled out under
the provisions of Companies Act, 2013 and Rules made thereunder, the
stakeholders are hereby informed that unlike numbering of various forms
under the Companies Act, 1956, forms under the new Act are mandatorily
numbered alpha-numeric. Initial of forms is to be started with alphabet of two
or three letters based on the subject of the Chapter, followed by serial number
of the form. This will define the nature of the forms and would be easy to
recognise.
There are total 29 chapters under the Companies Act, 2013. Chapters I and
XXIII have been notified but no form is prescribed under these chapters.
