Conversion under part ix of the companies act, 1956

How can I find out whether a particular company was converted under Part IX of the Companies Act, 1956? I am aware of the procedure to be followed by an enetity for conversion but could someone help with a memo or circular as to what procedure was the ROC supposed to follow for converting partnership firms into a private limited company under Part IX? Eg: I learn that a stamp stating "Converted under Part IX" would be there on the incorporation certificate. But where is this written?
