Hello there,

We have recently formed a private limited and looking for formalities / format to appoint Managing Director.

Thanks for your kindness


At a duly convened board meeting the company can appoint a Director as Managing Director of the Company. Since the company is a private limited company there is no restriction in respect of the period of appointment. The board can fix the period of appointment. If the articles of association empowers the board, then the board can fix the remuneration of the Managing Director. Within 30 days of the board meeting the company will have to file Form 32 and Form 23 with the Registrar of Companies (at present online). Form 23 with board resolution has to be filed since it attracts the provisions of Section 192 of the companies act, 1956

Mr. Ajay Misra,

Nice to see the detailed procedure for appointment of a Manging Director.But the Company under reference is a private limited company( not a subsidary of a public company).To a private limited company, provisions of section 269, 198, 309 & Schedule XIII are not applicable.In case of a private limited company Managing Director is required to be appointed as per provisions of  the Articles of Association of the company.

Can a Public limited Company (Unlisted) can appoint three Whole-time Director and pay them remuneration.

@ Sambit kumar: It is possible.

Hi,

In a private company which is not a subsidiary of public company appointment of MD is governed by AOA.

so simply pass the Board Resolution for appointment of MD and file form 23 with ROC within 30 days.

in my opinion if existing director is appointed as MD then there is no need of filing form 32 again at the time of appointment as MD. but if new person is appointed as MD then form 32 is required to be filed.


Rajeev Nayak

A public limited unlisted company can appoint 3 whole time directors and pay them remuneration however subject to the provisions / limits specified in Section 269, 309, 198 and Schedule XIII failing which CG approval is required.

A private company need not have MD. That being the case even if one is appointed as MD,  does it require filing of Form 23 and Form 32 for change in designation.

Hi...

Agreed with Rajeev Nayak.....

Can a MD of Private Company appoint as a WTD in other Pvt. Co. ? if Yes then Pls reply me its urgent thnx in Advance

regards,

Vivek

Hi,

A Pvt Co. which is not a subsidiary of a public company is simply a Pvt. Co. and appointment of MD under this co. will be governed by its AOA.

Moreover, appointment of MD is an agreement between company and MD for which e Form 23 is required to be filed under section 192 of the Act. Further to this Form 32 is also required to be filed as we are changing the Designation of a Director to Managing Director.

So we can appoint MD in a Private by passing a Board Resolution.

Hi

 

Yes a MD of private company can appoin as WTD of another company. There is no restriction on appointment in case of private company. Please check what is your company's article says about that.
