Resignation of directors before filing with ROC.


We would like to close down the business, Chairman is asking for the resignation of directors before filing with ROC. I am not comfortable doing this. Can you tell me if this is necessary to have the directors resignation before "closing and distribution of assets" etc. Any process or guideline documents will greatly help.
I would like to have the distribution of assets//liability before we file for closure to ROC.

Hi Vishal,  in case of close of business and dispose of assets you need to comply section 293.

There should be a minimum of 2 directors for a private company and 3 for a limited company. If after resignation of certain directors, this requirement is fulfilled you may take their resignations or may appoint new director to fulfill this requirement and file the changes with ROC.

If this is a winding up the following are the modes:

MODES OF WINDING UP

There are three modes of winding up of a company, viz.,

1. Winding up by the Court (Section 433 to 483).

2. Voluntary winding up (Section 484 to 521). This may be—

(1) members’ voluntary winding up, or

(2) creditors’ voluntary winding up.

3. Winding up subject to supervision of Court.
