Dear Archana
This depends upon whether your company is Public limited co or pvt ltd.
The provisions of section 300(2) of the Companies Act 1956 provides some kind of exemption ....
so you can check whether your pub ltd/pvt ltd fit on those parameters.
i hope this will solved your query.

A Director who is directly or indirectly interested in a contract or arrangement shall not participate in the discussion on any such contract or arrangement & vote thereon.
However please note that if the director is not holding more than 2% of the paid-up share capital of other public company, he can't be termed as interested director.
Section 300 is not applicable to
1. a private company which is neither a subsidiary nor a holding company of a public company
2. a private company which is subsidiary of a public company, when it enters into a contract with its holding company

Dear Archana,
To pass resolution, you can appoint additional director (non interested) on the board

But i dont find any sense here. SS1 prohibits interested directors from participating in passing the resolution. If we approach shareholders to pass the resolution, they are same persons who are directors.
To appoint Additional director for just passing the resolution doesnt seem much practical. Kinldy confirm is there any provision allowing intereste ddirectors to vote.

Dear Archana
In this case, Surely a general meeting can be called and resolution be passed....
