Nimbus Aerospace, a foreign company, registered its Indian place of business on 1 April. On 10 June it changed the person resident in India authorised to accept service of process. By what date must it deliver a return of the alteration to the Registrar?

The return is due by 10 July. Section 380(3) requires a foreign company to deliver a return of the alteration in the prescribed form within thirty days of the alteration, and the thirty days run from the 10 June change, not from the original registration.

Explanation

Under section 380(3), any alteration in the documents delivered must be notified by a return in the prescribed form within thirty days of the alteration. Thirty days from 10 June is 10 July. The registration date of 1 April is the wrong base for the period.
