14 July 2015 Jay bhai is correct. To add to his answer, if such director is foreigner, then he can authorise Practicing Professional (CA/CS/CWA) to sign Form DIR-11 on behalf of him/her. In such, you do not need Digital signature of such director.

15 July 2015 As per the amendment of rules, they have used word 'Foreign Director'. I think, in your case, if he is not the citizen of India (even though he is NRI) and he is residing out of India for more than 182 days (non-resident), then he can authorise professional or resident director to file DIR-11.

Since nowhere in the Act/Rules, the definition of Foreign Director is mentioned, it is better if you ask this to any office in ROC.

MCA has not clarified whether 'Foreign Director' stands for 'Foreign Resident' or 'Foreign citizen'. There is big difference in both.
