10 June 2010 1. There is no statutory requirement that a Director must hold any shares at all.
2. In view of the above, the AOA can be altered.
For further details pl refer section 266 and 270 to the Companies Act,1956.

Dear Sir,

Provisions related to qualification shares are governed by section 270 of the companies act, 1956. A director of public company is also not required to hold qualification share unless required by articles u/s 270.

Further Section 270 and 272 does not apply to Private Company by virtue of Section 273 of the Act. However, the Articles of a Private Company may provide that the directors are required to obtain shares as qualification shares.

If your articles contain the requirement to hold qualification shares then by passing special resolution in the general meeting you can amend your articles and remove that clause from article.

Within 30 days of passing special resolution file form 23 with ROC.

Regards
