I am appointed as CS in a Pvt. Ltd. Co. having a paid up capital of Rs. 60 lacs. Will I have to file my Form 32 for appearing before CLB? What if I have to appear on behalf of group companies? Will it sensible to get appointed and resigned for each group Company for the purpose of appearing before CLB? Will there be any effect of my appointment on Section 383A of the Companies Act, 1956?
