Dear members,

Can an additional director be appointed in a board meeting w.e.f back date (i.e. a date earlier than the date of Board meeting) ?

In my opinion NO. Others views solicited

Dear Madhuri,

There is no specific provision in the articles. Suppose the meeting is held on 10th Jan, then can we appoint the director w.e.f 9th Jan?

And as you mentioned that such appointment must be consented by all directors, can u pls explain more on this? Consent itself is taken in such Board meeting i.e. on (10th Jan).

Regards,

Dear Himanshi,

Yes, provided it is recorded in the minutes that such appointment was approved and consented by all Directors of the Board. Also check the Articles provision, if any specific or shareholders approval required.

Others view solicited.

Regards,

Madhuri

Dear Friends,

Section 179 (3) lists out the items that have to be approved in a Board Meeting. One of the item is 3) to take note of appointment(s) or removal(s) of one level below the Key Management Personnel;

It is being interpreted that appointment of directors also included in the above class and same calls for filing of MGT-14 also. 

Warm Regards

In my view the Act does not expressly provide that an Additional Director has to be appointed at a meeting of the Board.It would be in order if the appointment is approved by the Board by circulation.

Yes, but my query remained unsolved. The questions is whether date of appointment can be earlier than the date of resolution?
