No, It's not required, If interest is lesser than 2% of paid up capital, But note that, Once the interest is disclosed, any changes to be mandatorily disclosed in the board meeting held thereafter..

For purpose of section 184(2) of the Companies Act 2013, every Director who is interested in any contract or arrangement or proposed contract or arrangement in body corporate in which such director holds more than 2 percent of the total shareholding of the body corporate, then such director shall disclose his nature of interest in which contract or arrangement is discussed but shall not participate in the meeting.

But if the Director is holding less than 2 percent of the amount of the paid up share capital, there is no need to give disclosure in form MBP 1
