Closure of register of members requires at least seven days' notice and prescribed newspaper and website publication for listed companies. A company closing its register of members, debenture holders or other security holders must give at least seven days' prior notice and, for listed companies or those intending to list, publish that notice once in a principal vernacular newspaper and once in an English newspaper circulating in the district of the registered office and on the website as notified by the Central Government and on the company's website; private companies are exempt if notice is served on all members not less than seven days prior.
