Keeping all these new features in mind the editors have revised the new edition. Procedurally, all changes made by the Central Government, the Department of Corporate Affairs and SEBI and in view of several departmental circulars, clarifications, notifications issued and due to other changes and amendments in allied Acts, Rules and Regulations have made it imperative to bring out a new and revised edition.

Existing Chapters on E-Filing of Forms, Returns & Applications to the Registrar of Companies, Department of Corporate Affairs, Regional Directors, Company Law Board and the Central Government have been reviewed and re-examined in the light of the statutory changes made and Government Directions issued. As a result, existing Chapters have been comprehensively dealt with and various Chapters have been re-arranged, besides many new specimen E-Applications, E-Forms and Returns having been added. In the present revised edition of Volume 3 an attempt has been made to update various Chapters on E-Forms, E-Returns, E-Applications, Agreements, Documents, etc. in a noval way, inasmuch as all academic discussions have been avoided, instead precise instructions on the steps to be taken one after another for e-filing of a particular statutory form, application, return or a document, have been given. With every specimen e-application, return, or a statutory e-form self explanatory practice notes are also given and wherever thought necessary relevant extracts from Departmental Circulars, Clarifications have been quoted for the practical guidance and procedure. The instructions have been kept confined to the statutory steps to be taken.
