    History of Company

    The company history sections lists out major chronological events that happened to the company.
    Our Company was incorporated under the name of the "Eastern Carrying Company Limited" on June 7, 1939 under the Indian Companies Act, VII of 1913. The name of our company was subsequently changed to "Cox and Kings (India) Limited" and the consequent fresh Certificate of Incorporation was granted on February 23, 1950. Subsequently, after the amendment of Section 43A of the Companies Act 1956, the word "Private" was added to the name of our Company on October 12, 2001. Pursuant to a special resolution of our shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on January 29, 2007, our Company became a public limited company and the word "Private" was deleted from its name. The Certificate of Incorporation to reflect the new name was issued on March 28, 2007 by the RoC.

    The evolution of our name as a brand can be traced in history dating back to the year 1758, i.e. an history of over 250 years when Lord Ligonier, Colonel of the 1st Foot Guards, appointed Richard Cox, as his regimental agent for handling the affairs, pay and sundry obligations of the officers stationed overseas. Then since the year 1765 it operated as a partnership firm. By the year 1815, the firm became agents and banker to the entire Household Brigade, most of the cavalry and infantry regiments, the Royal Artillery, and the Royal Wagon Train, which later became the Royal Army Service Corps. In the year 1909, Cox & Co. got incorporated as an unlimited company under the Companies (Consolidation) Act, 1908 in London. In October 1922, Cox & Co. absorbed the business of Henry S. King & Co., a small bank with Indian interests, with which the name of Cox & Kings came into existence.

    In February1923 their banking business was taken over by Lloyds Bank Limited. In the year 1960 Lloyds Bank Limited sold this acquired business to National and Grindlays Bank Ltd. In the year 1980 Grindlays Bank Limited divested its nonbanking activities because of Governmental regulations. This interest in the travel business was bought by Mr. A.B.M. Good and Mr. John Norman Romney Barber by acquiring Cox & Kings (Holdings) Ltd. (now Cox & Kings Ltd.) along with its subsidiary Cox & Kings Ltd. (now Cox & Kings Travel Ltd.). Cox & Kings under its present ownership continued to operate as Specialized Tour Operator. It also branched out into special interest holidays for artists, botanists and natural historians.

    In the year 1980, the Reserve Bank of India vide its letter dated May 14, 1980 permitted Cox & Kings (Agents) Limited to transfer its Indian business to Cox and Kings (India) Limited with effect from October 1, 1978. Cox & Kings (Agents) Limited, however, continued with its business from its head office in London. In consideration of this purchase of business, Cox and Kings (India) Limited issued our shares to Cox & Kings (Agents) Limited. As a condition of Indianisation imposed by the Reserve Bank of India, Cox and Kings (India) Limited issued and allotted 60% of the shares to resident Indians and Staff Gratuity Trust Fund.

    Ajay Ajit Peter Kerkar and Urrshila Kerkar bought Equity Shares of Cox and Kings (India) Limited from the existing shareholders of our Company for the first time on May 09, 1981 and thereafter consolidated their shareholding by way of rights issues in March 1990, August 1996, November 1998 and June 2005 through the allotment of additional shares/subscription to renunciation in the rights issues including purchases from the existing shareholder during the said period. Liz Investments Private Limited acquired the Equity Shares from the existing shareholders for the first time on September 21, 1988 and similarly consolidated its shareholding in the rights issue by the Company March 1990, August 1996, November, 1998 and June 2005. Upon conclusion of these rights issues in June 2005 Ajay Ajit Peter Kerkar, Urrshila Kerkar, Liz Investments Private Limited and Mr. A.B.M. Good collectively held 3,842,450 Equity Shares representing 70.63% of the outstanding capital of the Company.
