26 November 2010 Director may or may not be an employee

Director if employed in the company would be called as an executive director. If he drawing a fixed remuneration, then it would be his salary. If he is employed in the company but is not drawing any salary and receiving only sitting fees, then it would be his other income.

Director may not be employed in the company. i.e. he may be an non-executive director. He may be drawing either sitting fees or commission or monthly remuneration in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act. Such remuneration should be shown by the director either as Other Income or Business Income, if he is a professional/independent director.

TDS as stated by the other expert is to be deducted.
