It is necessary that the AOA of the company should have a provision of reduction of its share capital in any way and its Memorandum should provide for demerger, division or split of the company in any way. Demerger, thus, resulting into reduction of company’s share capital would also require the company to amend its • MOA. • Reduction would in share capital occur with transfer of assets or repayments to departing faction or group of members of the promoters of the company.
