28 November 2014 Can company have MD & CEO both under new company act

Because under section 129
Financial Statement should be signed by two directors out of which one shall be managing director and the Chief Executive Officer.

Can anyone please explain.

28 November 2014 MD and CEO both not mandatory.

129 is not the section. It is 134(1).

If CEO is a director, financial statements can be signed by CEO and any other director.

If CEO is not a director, should be signed By MD and any other director.

29 November 2014 (1) The financial statement, including consolidated financial statement, if any, shall be approved by the Board of Directors before they are signed on behalf of the Board at least by the chairperson of the company where he is authorised by the Board or by two directors out of which one shall be managing director and the Chief Executive Officer, if he is a director in the company, the Chief Financial Officer and the company secretary of the company, wherever they are appointed, or in the case of a One Person Company, only by one director, for submission to the auditor for his report thereon.

Sir here "or" is used once for chairperson v/s 2 directors

and then we have "comma" for CEO (Director) , CFO , CS that means all have to sign.
"," comma should be interpreted as "and"
