Welcome
The Articles of Association (AOA) serve as the internal rulebook of a company, defining how it will operate, make decisions, and manage responsibilities. A well-drafted AOA ensures transparency, accountability, and smooth functioning within the organization.
The AOA sets out the framework for company management — outlining directors’ powers, shareholder rights, meeting protocols, and voting procedures for structured governance.
By clearly defining roles, responsibilities, and decision-making powers, the AOA minimizes disputes between directors and shareholders — ensuring smooth internal operations.
The AOA is a legally recognized document filed with the Registrar of Companies, making it enforceable under the Companies Act and ensuring compliance with statutory laws.

The Articles of Association (AOA) is a legal document that outlines the internal rules, regulations, and management structure of a company. It defines how the company will be operated, including the powers of directors, shareholder rights, and meeting procedures.
The AOA is essential because it governs the company’s internal management and decision-making process. It helps prevent disputes by clearly outlining the responsibilities of directors and shareholders, ensuring transparency and legal compliance.
The AOA is usually prepared by legal professionals or company secretaries during the incorporation process. It is filed with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) along with the Memorandum of Association (MOA) at the time of company registration.
The AOA includes details such as:
• Share capital structure
• Appointment and powers of directors
• Rights and responsibilities of shareholders
• Meeting procedures and voting rights
• Dividend distribution and financial management
Yes, the AOA can be altered by passing a special resolution in a general meeting of shareholders and filing the updated version with the ROC for approval.
The Memorandum of Association (MOA) defines the company’s external objectives, such as its purpose and scope of operation, while the Articles of Association (AOA) defines internal governance — how the company will be managed and controlled.
Yes, the AOA is mandatory for all companies registered under the Companies Act, 2013 in India. It must be submitted along with the incorporation documents during company registration.
The AOA must be signed by all the subscribers (founding members) of the company in the presence of a witness at the time of incorporation.
