Every director shall at the first meeting of the Board in which he participates as a director and thereafter at the first meeting of the Board in every financial year or whenever there is any change in the disclosures already made, then at the first Board meeting held after such change, disclose his concern or interest in any company or companies or bodies corporate, firms, or other association of individuals which shall include the shareholding, in such manner as may be prescribed.
In Form MBP-1 fourth column is given separately for the details of shareholding. Hence shareholding is compulsory requirement with other interest.

Hence apart from Directorship, Remuneration, Place of profit and interest by himself or through relatives also taken in to account while entering information in third column of the said form MBP-1 to ensure strictly adherence of Section 184 and 188.
