The general meeting called within six months of the end of the previous fiscal year is known as the “annual” general meeting (or “AGM”). If a general meeting is held outside that time frame, it is “extraordinary” (“EGM”) and meant to address urgent or pressing matters that couldn't be settled at the AGM.
A General Meeting is simply a meeting of shareholders and 21 days' notice must be given to shareholders, but this can be reduced to 14 days, or increased to 28 days, in certain situations.
In contrast, a special board meeting is a meeting that is not scheduled well in advance and is called by someone – authorized either under the law or the organization's bylaws – for a special purpose.
An Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) is an urgent meeting called to address pressing company issues or emergencies. These matters require the immediate attention of the board, shareholders and senior company executives. An EGM is also referred to as a special general meeting or an emergency general meeting.
All shareholders are legally obligated to receive an invitation to these meetings. The board of directors should also be represented. An auditor may also be present if the organization is subject to an audit requirement.
In general, companies require a letter or similar notification from investors having a sufficient number of shares, demanding a special meeting and stating the purpose for that meeting. The company can then set the date for the meeting, typically within a 30 to 90 day time period after receipt of the demand.
(1) The Board may, whenever it deems fit, call an extraordinary general meeting of the company . Provided that in case of a Specified IFSC public company, the Board may subject to the consent of all the shareholders, convene its extraordinary general meeting at any place within or outside India.
In addition to specifying the date, time and location of the meeting, special meeting notices should make note of all agenda items. Unless the bylaws indicate something different, board members should only be discussing the business that was stated in the notice for the special meeting.
Annual General Meeting (AGM) During these meetings, corporate board members present annual financial reports and accounts to be ratified by shareholders. Shareholders can also question board decisions and vote on the appointment, election, or removal of company directors.
