This discussion addresses the reappointment of a Whole-Time Director for a listed company whose term expired before the AGM. It clarifies that reappointment requires shareholder approval at a General Meeting, as per Section 196 of the Companies Act 2013. Any reappointment made without this specific shareholder consent is considered invalid under the Act.

Subject to the provisions of section 196(4) and section 196(5), reappointment of Whole-time Director can be made only at the General Meeting of the Company.
