04 January 2012 Hi All,

My company Directors by resolution passed in Board Meeting delagated authority to the Finance officer of the company to execute mortgage( to deposit title deeds ) on behalf of Directors of the company.

Now the questions is whether company directors can do so....whether any officer of the company by a specified authority of resolution can do so?

Plz reply as soon as possible.

04 January 2012 As per my view this can be done.
but check your AOA with regard to Common Seal application because Common Seal of the Company is Applied in presence of at least one Director who should be authorised from Board Resolution..
