Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Sweat equity requires that the shares belong to a class already issued, that a special resolution authorises the issue, and that at least one year has elapsed since commencement of business. Listed companies may also issue sweat equity by following SEBI regulations, so non-listing is not a condition and (C) is excluded.
