yes..and corresponding sections of 1956 act are not in force now.

According to Sec 135 of the new companies act 2013,It is now mandatory for the Companies with net worth of 500 crore or more or turnover of 1000 crore or more or a net profit of 5 crore or more during any FY to constitute a CSR committee which shall be responsible for formulating CSR policy and recommend the expenditures to be made.

The CSR committee of the Board shall consist of 3 or more Directors out of which at least 1 director shall be independent Director.

Whether Private limited company which is fitted under the above criteria is also required to appoint independent director in his CSR committee,??

because private companies are not required to appoint independent director...

Various rules under new companies act yet to be notified. Once the rules are out clarity will come.
