25 July 2013 Hi

First of all you take DIN of the foreign person. After getting them , you can appoint him in company by Board or through general Meeting.

Generally the director of the company should attend the AGM, but Companies Act, 1956 does not made mandatory for attending meeting by director.

However,If such foreign director is Chairman of the AGM, then it is mandatory that he should be present in AGM.
