The provisions of Companies Act, 1956 and Schedule XIII deal with remuneration of director will not applicable to private limited company. Such provision is applicable only public company and its subsidiary.
The remuneration of directors of the private company is totally governed by their company articles. If the Company’s article permits to pay remuneration you can give remuneration without any restriction. For this you will pass a Board Resolution for payment of remuneration.
There is no restriction under Companies Act, 1956 on relation to directors of private company. You are free to pay.
