1. The Companies Act does not provide any thing about place for holding Board Meetings. Therefore, meetings of the Board may be held at any place in India or even Outside India.
2. Section 286 does not prescribe the manner of giving notice and neither that section or any other section prescribe the mode of sending the notice. You should give the notice of the Board meeting as per the provisions in AOA.
