-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then started a series of issues - captured in this segment - only the key ones:
- Government issued id and the database entry that was entered in the backend for the same did not match in a country known for its IT services
Tried to address this issue from my end by various proper channels and means, while I did not clear response from the other end. After prolonging for a while, suddenly that was not an issue any more. When I asked for further details, I never got any further information in this regard on how the issue was addressed, in spite repeatedly asking for the same.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is an email communication tied to this process in the middle of May, 2020

Thanks for your detailed reply.
I
totally understand where you are coming from, however, it was
disheartening to see this process taking such a long time. In terms of
changing directors, that is not a feasible solution. When there are
people with no connection holding companies in India and people of
Indian origin holding companies and mansions in other countries while
claiming to be bankrupt in India, I believe that I have all the rights
to be the director over there just like there are Indians holding
directorial position in entities based in other countries. Also, in this
global space, I have seen individuals who are citizens of India
registering companies in the US, at least as mentioned in their website
or through loopholes available over here. For example, a company based
in India, has supposedly units in Canada and the US, though it appeared
that there was no connection between the nature of their business and
what is stated in their website, and their connection to these
countries.
Anyways,
it is not even appropriate to bring up these examples, as it is better
for us to compare those setting superlative examples rather than
scoundrels cheating the system.
See,
my last email was from my recent experience not seeing any response
from your team's side for almost a week or so, which made me wonder
whether I have to forget the paid amount for this process. See, we
started addressing this issue on April 6th, 2020 and it is almost two
months now and we have not made any progress. I would like to know what
can be done right now to resolve the issue and complete the remaining
steps without changing the director.
The
one solution that I tried was to get an international roaming package
for Airtel, which I did, but was never activated. I would like to know
whether your team know of someone who could help to get this line
activated. In this way, I should be able to get an OTP to change from
father's name to mother's name online, which would allow us to complete
the online application process for changing the name.
By
the way, I forgot to include that Mr Akshay Kumar (Rajiv Hari Om
Bhatia), who has made a name for himself in Bollywood from humble
beginnings, is a Canadian citizen on paper and Amy Jackson and several
other actors, who acted in Indian movies in the recent times are
citizens of other countries. These names are being shared just as
examples of successful individuals with connections to other parts of
the world. For that matter, Mr Akshay kumar interviewed Mr Modi prior to
the last elections on an one on one face the people session.
Sincerely,
|

What is an apostille document?
To verify the authenticity of the submitted document, it is mandatory to get the documents notarized with an approved notary public followed by getting it authenticated and validated by the local governmental organization, which here in the US happens to be the Secretary of State, through approved methods.
Before we jump in, please check out this email - This extension in deadlines was never brought up by the third-party or in any of the previous emails sent by MCA as a response to our application (June 2nd email, . As per this email response from MCA that I received on July 4th, there was an official announcement on extension made way back in April 2020. Though we had no plans to prolong the process from our end, this information would have alleviated in terms of increased anxiety and stress that came from extending the deadlines every time as per the issued deadlines in MCA's email, while also trying to push from our end to complete other relevant requirements such as, getting the documents notarized,

Just
to be certain that the DSC documents are signed in line with the
requirements, shall we go through the sequence as we had done during the
previous dozen or so times? If yes, we can utilize a remote sharing
tool as we had done before. I would like to be certain that there is no
mistake on this front to prevent any additional delays.
I
spoke to an official at the government agency here with regard to the
apostille documents again today and they have received the resent
package. Though they had mentioned that it will be sent out today after
completion of the apostille process, it appears that it will be
available for pick up tomorrow. As there are restrictions for drop-ins,
from then on, it solely depends on the shipping company.
I will try to reach the shipping company as well tomorrow to make sure that the package gets picked up tomorrow.
By the way, I noticed an article in Economic times about 20 day extension for some MCA related processes due to Covid-19. Can you look into this?
Sincerely,
Srikanth.

FYI -
In
the chronological order email that I had shared a few days ago, I
forgot to include the first email pertaining to MOA and AOA that I had
sent to your team during the early phase of this communication stream. I
have had experience of putting together MOA and AOA documents for our
US registration years ago, which helped me to put together the first
draft that I had shared with Abarna (Please see attached image file).
The
below thought pertaining to MOA and AOA is being shared not to point
fingers. However, during the current global crisis, every small focused
step could make a difference.
If
I had received the MOA and AOA from you the next day rather than after
three days, it could have given us extra two/three days. For that
matter, we went through the specifics and wordings in MOA and AOA when
we initially worked on it. If you had said that we could utilize the
same documents, which happened to be the same document that you had sent
at the end, it would have given an extra few days for completing this
process.
Anyways,
let us make this work and complete the registration of AmazeBaba and
its Affiliates, a bending baba eCommerce platform for a better world,
followed by the registration of the trademarks soon. I will wait for
your email in the morning for us to complete the next process.
By the way, here is the information on the extension of submission by 20 days (please see attached screenshot).
Thanks for your understanding.
Srikanth.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As
I did not hear much from your team lately and with only a day or so to
complete the process to submit the apostille documents, I have also
reached out to the MCA directly to figure out a way to submit the
apostilled documents. You could see the sent email below.
I
would appreciate a timely response to still complete the submission of
the apostille documents in a timely fashion before the said deadline.
Sincerely yours,
Srikanth.
Dear Sir,
MCA has extended the timeline to submit the forms
During
the verification stage, passport size photo is required to be attached
on the subscribers sheet of MOA and AOA of the company
We
have attached final copy (merged) AOA and MOA, please attach passport
size photo of the applicant and send the copy of the same to proceed for
form submission
Thanks,
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another story with respect to Apostille Documents:
Notarization of the documents:
I took the services of a local UPS center that is a known entity for this purpose. After getting the documents notarized, I had mailed by one of the quickest means to meet the deadline set forth, thus paying more than five times the normal shipping price for the same for the reason shared above, which is to meet the deadline set forth in those MCA emails, though it turned out to be not the case (as found later through my research means) due to the extension of deadlines for Covid-19.
What happened then with respect to this apostillation process?
We will see that in the next article.
