Certified True Copy

Good Morning Rashmi,

Please find below text of Section 54

AUTHENTICATION OF DOCUMENTS AND PROCEEDINGS.

Save as otherwise expressly provided in this Act, a document or proceeding requiring authentication by a company may be signed by a director, the manager, the secretary or other authorised officer of the company, and need not be under its common seal.

As such, directors and company secretary are authorised to sign and submit certified true copy. Authorisation can be passed on by putting specific name in the resolution and supporting documents will be certified true copy of board Resolution.

Directors / Manager / Company Secretary can authenticate the  documents of the company. This can be done by them even without any resolution passed by the Board.

Other Senior Officers can authenticate the documents only on proper authorisation of the Board.

Hi

As per section 54, director need not to be authorised by Board resolution to provide the authenticated copy. Whether this power can be delegated by director to any employee of the company simpley by authority letter. If yes, then I think requirement of board resolution is not applicable.

These persons are specifically authorised by the Companies Act to authenticate the documents of the Company.

According to me, they cannot delegate these powers. Only the Board can authorise any other person for authenticating the documents of the company.

Agreed with Jayshree Mam...
