Quorum

713 views 4 replies

The AOA  of a company stipulates that there will not be quorum in a board meeting unless Mr. A or wife of A is present. Mr. A holds majority shares.

Can this be valid . Look, section 287 does not give you a liberty to look beyond the provisions of CA 1956... it does not provide.."unless the AOA conatins otherwise.."

Min quorum for a private co. is 2 members personally present & 5 for public co. AOA provides for  the minimum qourum bt it cant be less than the above limits..

The aforesaid clause is valid.

Agree with nitika

any how, quoram  can be less than the no. specified in act or AOA if, the no. of members falls below the specified limit of 2 or  5 :)

And more over, AOA cannot hold a clause that can over ride any section of Companies Act :)

So the clause that Mr. A or Mrs A should be present to consider a qurom is not calid :)
