Please take note that plain reading of the section 198 sub section 1 of the Companies Act 1956 provides overall maximum managerial remuneration i.e.11% of the net profit computed according to section 349-350 of the Act.

So in your case a company can not give remuneration beyond 11% of the net profit.

Even provisions of section 309 (1) are subject to provisions of section 198.

As far as Approval of Central Govt is Concerned they are for MD/WTD Which also subject to overall limit up to 11%.

I hope your query is solved.
