Prom the great importance attached by the authorities to the
early construction of a line of railroad from Allahabad to Delhi, the
Directors of the Upper India Railwry Company feel it to be essen-
tial to the interests of their shareholders that this Company should at
once be placed in a position to tender for the whole line. They have,
therefore, resolved, after mature deliberation, to increase the present
Capital of the Company from 1,000,0001. to 4,000,000/. This sum,
their engineers assure the Directors, is fully adequate to construct
the whole line and such short branches as may be necessary, as well
as to provide the requisite plant.
The additional capital will be raised by an issue of 150,000 shares,
of 201. each, with a deposit of 2s. on each share. Of these new shares
75,000 will be allotted pro rata to the holders of scrip, as near as may
be in the proportion of three shares of the new issue to every two of
the old issue. 50,000 will be reserved for India; and the remaining
shares, including any not taken in India or by the scripholders, will
be reserved or disposed of for the interest of the Company, as the
Directors may deem advisable.
Applications to be addressed to the Directors, at the offices of the
Company, on or before the 24th instant. Present holders of scrip,
who desire to avail themselves of the option of having new shares,
are requested to forward, with their applications, their scrip for veri-
fication, at the office of the Company, on or before the 24th inst.
Forms of application may be had at the office.
