There are several things  in the Act/Rules which have no relevance at all.  It is just one of such  things.

 

please provide format of all of these as attachments

Sir,

While filling DIR 12. letter of appointment and Declaration by the first director has been made as mandatroy attachment, if it is a new company which is not yet incorporated, how the director will be appointed and by whom, and if there are only two directors who are the promoters also then who will appoint them. Kindly advise me. Im getting different views from different professionals. Also provide me the format of Letter of appointment and delcaration by the first director in case of a new company not yet incorporated

There is no question  of appointment of first directors named in the Articles.  Can we attach a letter as per following draft?
