Yes, you can change the directors before the incorporation of the company. To do this, you need to provide the necessary documentation to the Registrar of Companies (ROC). Here is the step-by-step process along with the necessary formats:
### Step-by-Step Process:
1. **Obtain No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Director to be replaced**: - Obtain a NOC from Director Y stating that they have no objection to being replaced by Director Z.
2. **File DIR-2 (Consent to act as Director)**: - Director Z must provide their consent to act as a director using Form DIR-2.
3. **Prepare a Board Resolution**: - A resolution should be passed by the board of directors (in case the company is already incorporated) or the promoters stating the change of directors.
4. **Prepare the Incorporation Documents**: - Include the names of the new directors in the incorporation documents (MoA, AoA).
5. **File necessary forms with ROC**: - File Form DIR-12 (Particulars of appointment of directors and the key managerial personnel and the changes among them) with ROC if the company is already incorporated.
### Formats for the Necessary Documents:
#### 1. No Objection Certificate (NOC) from Director Y
```plaintext Date: [Date]

I, [Director Y's Full Name], S/o [Father’s Name], R/o [Address], hereby state that I have no objection to my removal as a Director of [Name of the Company] and the appointment of [Director Z's Full Name] in my place.

### Filing with ROC
1. **If the company is already incorporated**: - File Form DIR-12 within 30 days of the resolution.
2. **If the company is not yet incorporated**: - Ensure that the incorporation forms (INC-32, SPICe) include the updated information with the new director's details.
### Important Notes: - Ensure all forms are duly signed and completed. - Attach the necessary identification and address proof documents as required. - Keep a copy of all forms and resolutions for your records.
By following these steps and using the provided formats, you can successfully change the directors before the incorporation of your company.
