According to Section 224(6) of the Companies ACt, Casual vacancy arising due to death, disqualification or dissolution ofthe firm of auditors can be filled up by the Board of Directors. Here the term "may" has been used in the Act. Is it mean that the casual vacancy in the above case may also be filled by the Shareholders in a general meeting?
