any intermittent vacancy of a woman director shall be filled-up by the Board at the earliest but not later than immediate next Board meeting or three months from the date of such vacancy whichever is later.
However in certain circumstances PROMOTER has to fill the vacancy if all Directors vacate office or disqualify at same time for any non compliance example 164(2).

If promoter is also not present government will fill the vacancy..
within 3 months from the date of Such Vacancy or immediate next board meeting
whichever later
Sec 149(1) second proviso provides for women director Every listed company and every unlisted company having paid up capital 100 crores or more OR turnover 300 crores or more shall appoint atleast one women director on its board Provided for companies incorporated under companies act 2013 Shall comply with this requirement within 6 months from being covered under this proviso. In case of vacancy arise , meet within 3 months from date of vacancy or next board meeting whichever is later in accordance to companies ( appointment and qualifications of directors ) rules , 2014 In case of listed company - in harmony with sebi (LODR) regulations ,2015
Please note that turnover means as defined in Refer sec 2(91) Make sure provisions in respect of new women director also being complied with in terms of qualifications, candidatures etc Thanks Shubham budhiraja CS PROFESSIONAL MODULE III student
