what do you mean by 7 directors are interested in board meeting???

The quorum is the minimum number of directors required to validate the board meeting.

According to section 174 of the Companies Act,2013 the quorum for meeting shall be one third of its total strength or two directors , whichever is higher, and participation of directors by video conferencing or other audio visual means shall also be counted for the purpose of quorum.Thus in your case quorum is present in the meeting as it exceeding one third of its total strength.

Where a meeting of the board could not be held for want of quorum,then meeting shall automatically stand adjourned to the same day to the same time in the next week.

Nice answer Ms. Jalpa Bhatt. But it seems the query is all about voting by the directors and quorum requirements for directors who are interested into the particular business to be transacted at the meeting. 

Right Sir, but when number of interested directors are exceedind or equal to two third of the strength, the directors who are not interested and present at the meeting,being not less than two,shall be the quorum during such time.
