Hi
It will apply when you appoint him in a listed public company as Independent Director .

iii. For the purpose of the sub-clause (ii), the expression ‘independent director’ shall mean a non-executive director of the company who:
a. apart from receiving director’s remuneration, does not have any material pecuniary relationships or transactions with the company, its promoters, its directors, its senior management or its holding company, its subsidiaries and associates which may affect independence of the director;
b. is not related to promoters or persons occupying management positions at the board level or at one level below the board;
c. has not been an executive of the company in the immediately preceding three financial years;
d. is not a partner or an executive or was not partner or an executive during the preceding three years, of any of the following:
i. the statutory audit firm or the internal audit firm that is associated with the company, and
