Corporate capacity under the memorandum of association did not extend to investment of preferential-issue proceeds in virtual digital assets merely because the activity had been added to the ancillary objects clause. Schedule I distinguishes a company's stated objects from matters necessary for furtherance of those objects; the first amendment addressed only the latter, while a later amendment added virtual digital asset business to the main objects clause. Until that main-objects amendment, fund raising and investment for that business were ultra vires. The listing application therefore could not be considered on the first amendment alone, and its return was upheld.
