Increasing Share Capital of a Sdn. Bhd. Company in Malaysia 马来西亚私人有限公司（Sdn. Bhd.）增加实缴资本
Increasing Share Capital of a Sdn. Bhd. Company in Malaysia
To proceed with the increase of paid-up share capital for a Malaysian Sdn. Bhd. company, the company is required to provide the relevant supporting documents to verify the capital injection and enable the Company Secretary to prepare and submit the required documents to SSM.
In Malaysia, the increase of paid-up share capital is commonly carried out through the allotment of new shares to existing or new shareholders. Under the Companies Act 2016, shares are issued with no par or nominal value, and directors generally require prior approval by company resolution before exercising the power to allot shares.
________________________________________
1. Documents Required from the Client
The company is required to provide the following documents and information for review:
1. Latest company bank statement showing the capital injection into the company’s bank account
2. Bank-in slip / transaction receipt / proof of transfer from the shareholder to the company
3. Amount of share capital to be increased
o Example: from RM2,000 to RM50,000
4. Details of shareholder(s) subscribing for the new shares
o Full name
o NRIC / passport number
o Address
o Number of shares to be allotted
o Amount paid for the shares
5. Source of funds / supporting documents, if required for compliance or KYC purposes
6. Company Constitution, if applicable
7. Confirmation from directors and shareholders approving the proposed increase of share capital
Where the shares are issued for non-cash consideration, additional supporting documents may be required, such as an agreement, contract, valuation report, or other evidence supporting the value of the consideration. Section 78 of the Companies Act 2016 requires specific particulars to be included in the return of allotment, including the number and amount of shares, amount paid or payable, class of shares, and allottee details; where shares are issued otherwise than in cash, the supporting contract or statement may also be required.
________________________________________
2. Purpose of Bank Statement and Supporting Documents
The bank statement and payment proof are required to confirm that the shareholder has actually injected funds into the company as paid-up capital.
This is important because the Company Secretary must ensure that the capital increase is properly supported before preparing the statutory documents and filing the relevant return with SSM.
The supporting documents also help to verify:
• the amount received by the company;
• the identity of the shareholder making the payment;
• whether the share capital is fully paid, partly paid, or payable;
• whether the company’s records can be updated accurately;
• whether the transaction complies with KYC and internal compliance requirements.

3. Process for Increasing Share Capital
Step 1: Review Company Details
The Company Secretary will review the company’s current share capital, shareholders’ structure, and constitution, if any. Where new shares rank equally with existing shares, the company may need to consider existing shareholders’ pre-emptive rights, subject to the company’s constitution.
Step 2: Confirm Capital Injection
The shareholder must transfer the capital amount into the company’s bank account. The company must then provide the bank statement and transaction proof to confirm receipt of funds.
Step 3: Prepare Corporate Documents
Upon receiving complete supporting documents, the Company Secretary will prepare the required documents, which may include:
• Directors’ Circular Resolution;
• Shareholders’ Resolution, where applicable;
• Share Allotment documents;
• Updated Register of Members;
• Return of Allotment documentation for SSM submission.
Step 4: Signing of Documents
The directors and/or shareholders will be required to review and sign the relevant documents before submission.
Step 5: Submission to SSM
The Return of Allotment must be lodged with the Registrar within fourteen (14) days from the allotment of shares. SSM also states that the lodgement of the Return of Allotment is made through MyCoID, and a certified copy of the resolution for share allotment shall be attached with the application.
Step 6: Update Company Records
After successful submission, the company’s statutory records will be updated to reflect the new paid-up share capital and shareholder position. Section 77 of the Companies Act 2016 also requires the company to register an allotment of shares in the register of members within fourteen (14) days from the date of allotment.
________________________________________
4. Important Notes
Please ensure that the capital injection is made into the company’s bank account, not into a personal account, unless properly documented and justified.
The amount stated as paid-up capital must be supported by actual payment proof. If the share capital is recorded as paid but the funds were not received by the company, this may create compliance issues during audit, bank review, due diligence, or regulatory checks.
Incomplete documents may delay the preparation and submission process. Therefore, the quotation and processing timeline will only be confirmed after we have reviewed the relevant documents and the company’s circumstances.
