08 July 2009 When a senior employee is appointed as an alternate director to a foreign director will the provisions of sec 314 be attracted? There is a 1964 DCA circular confirming this, but is there any more recent ruling on this?

08 July 2009 Hi,

There is no doubt about the applicability of Section 314 on the above mentioned senior employee. Sir I have checked some of latest amendments but I didn’t find anything. So you may go ahead with this interpretation and 1964 DCA circular.

However views of other Experts solicited.

Best Regards

08 July 2009 Thanks for the reply.

I presume a number of companies, with some sort of foreign participation, do appoint their employees - particularly CFOs, as alternate directors. It will be good if someone has a first hand experience on this
