Regarding company secretary

Can a person act as a director as well and  Company secretary at a time?

Is it permitted under company law, if it is private company having less than Rs 5 crores paid up capital?

Please clarify my doubt?

A wholetime company secreatry can act as a non executive director in any of the company.it is not prohibitted under the companies act 1956

ANY ONE CAN BECOME A DIRECTOR OF A PRIVATE LTD. PUBLIC LIMITED COMPANY OR ITS SUBSIDIARY PROVIDED HE IS NOT DISQUALIFIED UNDER SEC.274 OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 1956.

THE LIMITAION OF 15 COMPANIES DIRECTORSHIP SHOULD NOT BE BREACHED .
