There is no need to attach Proof of appointment of Authorised Signatory in case of a proprietorship firm. You can simply select Authorised Signatory as Yes in the page where details of Proprietor is mentioned. This will automatically skip the authorised signatory tab and you can head forward.

This is the format mentioned in the draft rules by the authorities.

In my opinion, this format should be used. Also there is a need to hold a board meeting and attach a board resolution only in case where such declaration can not be available.

As regards to query of appointment of some other person as an Authorised Signatory: To my interpretation of the FAQ's, Rules etc. both in case of partnership firms and companies, any other employee or manager or key managerial person to this effect can be appointed as an Authorised Signatory provided such authority is formally delegated by the Partners/BOD's.
