Solution

Resolution by circulation resolutions are not passed in general meeting. 

Explanation:

A resolution by circulation is one that is passed after being circulated among the members of a board or committee, usually directors, for approval. These resolutions are not passed at a general meeting; rather, they are authorized without a physical meeting, as required by the Companies Act. Ordinary and special resolutions, on the other hand, are adopted during general meetings.
