Rule 8 provided for appointment of Key Managerial Personnels. Now amended Rule 8A provides for appointment of Company Secretaries in companies not covered under under rule 8. It is to be noted that the Company secretary appointed in Pvt. Ltd. companies and public limited companies having paid up capital of Rs. 5 - 10 Crores under Rule 8A will not be treated as Key Managerial Person.
