Mallah Software Services Private Limited has not independently verified this against the gazette. The citation above is the instrument this date is taken from, and it is exact enough for a professional to check. Inside Lawzer a company secretary or chartered accountant can record that they have checked it, against the rule as it read on the day — and that record is withdrawn automatically if the rule later changes. A date nobody has checked says so.
