Dear All
I have a small Doubt about director ship of a person in a PVT LTD company i.e. CAN A PERSON WITHOUT HAVING ANY SHARES BECOME A DIRECTOR of that company "plz clarify" its urgent

dear experts

Please tell me if a company has changed its name then for how many numbers of years a company is required to show its old name in financial statement and elsewhere? please tell me which provision or rules are applicable for the same query.

Please suggest how I can start a company at minimum cost. It can be proprietorship (in wife's name) or partnership (wife & me). I want to keep it really simple because we are at experimental stage. Also, can I operate from a savings bank a/c (say in wife's name)?

Sir,
As per the Rules Share Certificate must be signed by both the directors and one C.S./A.R.

but in case one director is out of India then can he sign through any Rubber Stamp, Scanned Signatures etc.? as there is no other person to act as A.R. so it need to be signed by director only.

I just want to know the alternatives of handwritten signature in this case.

Thanks & Regards

Dear All
Kindly provide the definition of independent directors

ABC Limited, Unlisted Public Company,wants to take approval of the shareholders for following in the AGM, can it do so in single GM at a time?
1. Declaration of Dividend
2. Increase in Authorized Capital
3. Bonus Issue of Equity Shares
4. Preferential Allotment (as the Company received Share Application Money from Director(existing shareholder) and wanted to issue Shares to them)
5. 81(1A) for Public Issue of Shares

If yes, then what guidelines/circulars/rules applicable and need to follow?

Please also suggest the procedure to fix record date, as the above queries relating to many issues, is it necessary to close books for Bonus & dividend purpose or fixing record date suffice, also suggest do we need to give newspaper ad for said purpose????????

In one of our client company an independent director is appointed on 10th of june. at the time of appointment he was not holding DIN can sign/authenticate balance sheet which was placed for approval in the same meeting in which the proposed resolution to appoint him is moved in the first instance.
