04 July 2016 First of all, The important thing is whether his/her appointment is mandatory in the eyes of law. i mean is the mandatory Company Secretary in whole time employment applicable on the company. if yes, then appointment as CS is valid and beneficial in the interest of company. however, he/she can also given some extra responsibilities like internal audit etc.

04 July 2016 See, if internal audit compliance is not applicable on the company, then he/she can perform and act as internal auditor. but TAG is COMPANY SECRETARY. but when internal audit compliance is applicable on the company, then it is decided by the BOARD of the company. READ SECTION 138

04 July 2016 The main issue is for TAG, if a person work in two portfolio he desired for both designation i.e. in our case Manager (internal Audit) and Company Secretary.

Is company able to allow him both designation or not as per law?

06 July 2016 I think your reply is partially correct i.e. in MCA form because only CS designation is available for selection further he can upload appointment letter showing both designation and also hold both designation.

please correct if any wrong interpretation taken by me.
