Ca as a director

This query is : Resolved 

02 March 2012 Can a salaried Chartered accountant become a Director/promoter/suscriber of new Pvt. Ltd. Company.

02 March 2012 Unless his contract of employment prohibit him to become a director, he can be a director. As far as promoter or subscriber is concerned, yes, he can be a promoter or subscriber to MOA. Normally no contract of employment prohibit an employee to become a promoter because such thing is just an investment in the Company.

There will be no restriction on the quantum of the equity holding of the members, either individually and/or along with the relatives, in such Company.

approval from the professional ICAI.
