definition of Relative

Friends, i have a small doubt in the definition of relatives in the companies act. Relative has been deifned under Section 2(41) of the companies act, as follows, "relaive means, with reference to any person, any one who is related to such person in any of the way specified in section 6 and no others"

Section 6 has given a link of Schedule IA.  In the said sch.,definition of mother has included step-mother, however,definition of father has not included Step-father. Is there any grounds based on which the same has been excluded

i think definition theek hai relative ki

Friends, my query is that step-father must be included in the definition of father.. Had the act been silent about step-mother, step-son and step-daughter, this query would have not raised
