1. If directors Mr. A, B and C tender their resignation letters on 26.11.2018 with immediate effect and the company also receives the resignation letters on 26.11.2018. In such scenario, can the said directors attend complete board meeting on 26.11.2018 and constitute quorum for the complete board meeting?
