Yes.
A company secretary may be appointed as a director. But by virtue of explanation to section 269 such appointment would be equal to appointment of WTD and compliance with section 269 is mandatory.
But by virtue of a DCA clarification in this regard if you appoint CS as director then no need to comply section 269 irrespective of its applicability provided substantial powers of management are not given to such CS on appointment as a director.
So by passing a board resolution you may appoint CS as director.
