If possible please provide a specimen resolution.

Dear Bhavin,

Thanks a lot.

But we plan to appoint MD in a board meeting and not in the general meeting.Will explanatory statement be required if we are appointing him in a Board meeting?

Dear Sayali,

In My view, for the case as said by you, if appointment is made in Board meeting, there is no need of explainatory statement required

Thank you.. :)

Hi

 

The provision of section 269 and remuneration clause of Companies Act, is not applicable for private limited company. So you are free to appoint him at Board Meeting with or without remuneration as you think fit subject to your company's articles.

 

In that case, you will only file form 23 and 32 with ROC with in 30 days from the date of appointment.

A company cannot appoint a person directly as Managing Director. For a person to be MD, he must be Director first of all.

So First appoint the person as an Additional Director as per Section 161 of the CA, 2013 (It is applicable now). and File Form 32. There after file Form 23 as per section 194 (c) of CA, 1956 stating that the company has accorded approval of Board to change his designation as MD from Additional Dirctor by an ordinary resolution and for this the company need to give explanatory statement along with notice sent to the Board as it is the requirement for filing of the Form 23 and ROC will also demand Explanatory statement. However under section 173, no where has been mentioned that explantory statement has to be given for passing of board resolution rather it is required for any special business to be passed s per Section 102 of CA, 2013 (which is now appicable)

after the approval of Form 23, File form 32 for change in designation of director to Managing Director

He is already a Director.there is a change in designation from director to MD.
 

Yes, you will file Form32 and 23 as i earlier said.

 

Form-32 for change in designation from director to Managing director.

Form-23 is required as per section 192.
