Quick Summary
This discussion explores how expenses incurred during the closure of a private limited company should be shared between directors. While directors are not legally obligated to personally bear these costs, any agreement on sharing them, especially when the company lacks funds, should be mutually agreed upon. Shareholding ratios do not dictate a director's liability for closure expenses.

A director need not to bear any expense . although you are a shareholder too than expenses should be distributed in mutually agreed. there is no law or procedure to share the expense in ratio.

Thanks @ pritesh . Company does not have money to bear expenses. So I think directors will invest money in the company for this purpose. 

What if 1 director has shareholding of ~51% and other has shareholding of ~32% , so in this case as one of of the director has more than half shareholding, is he not liable more to bear expenses ?

 

No there is no concept of bearing expenses in any case . if possible can you give the company name.

Thanks a lot Pritesh. Do u mean to say there is no concept of bearing more expenses by director having more share holding?  I will let u kno the company name in personal chat.
