As per your queries, appointment of director where director of the company is less than the quorum fixed by article for the meeting of the Board. In your case the, the quorum is not, because of the resignation of one director out of the two director.
In such case you must follow the provision of your company articles read with clause 75 of the Schedule I- Table A of the Companies Act, 1956.

It is to be noted that any transfer of shares to an outsider without complying with the procedure as specified in the articles for effecting transfer of shares will not be operative against the company. Even in the case where the procedure prescribed by the articles was not followed and such failure was not due to any fault on the part of the selling shareholder, the transfer to an outsider was held not to be effective.
