30 April 2014 it has a retrospective application. so yes, all the existing directors become disqualified for any fresh appointment or reappointment. The correct approach shall be to immediately file the past returns to save the board from any disqualification.

please note again that the disqualification is only for the purpose of fresh appointment or reappointment...violation of 164 wont reslt in immediate vacancy/removal from the position of directorship.

30 April 2014 Gopal,

thanks for drawing my attention to 167. Yes you are correct, vacation shall be immediate.

Further, going through 167(3), I got the solution to your problem. It is clearly stated that once all the directors are disqualified, the promoter shall make fresh appointment for required number of directors and in his absence central govt shall do so. Such freshly appointed directors shall hold office till next AGM.
