Hi,
Meaning of substantial interest in context of company law is not defined specifically.
In companies act, 1956 Explanation to Sub section (8) of 294AA talks about substantial interest. But it is all together in a different context.
It would be wrong if you say directors of the company is considered as person having substantial interest of the company just because of his/her position in the board.
