To increase the authorised capital, you need to pass an appropriate board and shareholders resolution and amend the capital clause of the Memorandum of Association (MoA).
A private company's authorised capital specifies the maximum number of shares it may sell. There is no minimum capital required as per new Companies Act of 2013. To issue new shares or to raise the authorised capital, the capital clause of the Memorandum of Association is amended by passing an ordinary resolution by the board.
