Clear Distinction

MGT-14 vs Related MCA Forms

FormPurposeRelation to MGT-14
MGT-14Filing of applicable resolution/agreement
SH-7Notice of alteration of share capitalOften follows MGT-14 in a capital increase
RUNReservation of proposed company namePrecedes the resolution and MGT-14, where applicable
INC-24Application for approval of name changeFollows MGT-14 in a name-change process

MGT-14 reports the resolution itself — it does not by itself alter share capital, change the company name, or complete a registered-office change; those are separate filings that may follow.
