Dear Members,

A Company has appointed Mr. X as MD (without any Remuneration) in November' 2010 for three years, which term is expiring in the 15th November' 2013. Now, the BOD want to further appoint him for another three years period with effective from 16th November, 2013.

Now, my query is:

 "Whether we can pass a Board Resolution, before expiring the term i.e. before 15.11.2013???"

Other details are:

Next Board Meeting date is 06.05.2013 , wherein the resolution for re-appointment of Mr. X will be taken place.
Next AGM date is 31.07.2013, wherein the said appointment will be confirmed by the members.

Kindly suggest me on the matter.

Regards,
Deepesh

As per Act, the MD can be re-appointed at anytime but earlier NOT than 2 years from the date when his term expires.  hENCE IN YOUR CASE THERE IS ALREADY time period of less than one so you can very well do so.

Hello Vishwas,

if you are using the the word "Date of Re-appointment" then its construed that re-appointment will be effective from 19.04.2013 and not from 25.04.2013.

If in your case the tenures of yours MD's get expiring on the 19.04.2013, in that case you will have to pass resolution before 19.04.2013 nd not after that.

However, for taking confirmation of Members through AGM or EGM, i am still confuse that the same is also requires before expiring the tenure or it can be later.???

Please suggest.

Regards,
Deepesh

Dear Deepesh,
 
I got the point. I need to call a Board meeting first and then fix a EGM on or before 19th April.
 
As per my knowledge, it may be Either an AGM or EGM. but, After appointment we shloud file Form 32 within 30 days of appointment and Form 23 within 30 days of EGM/AGM and Form 25C within 90 days of Appointment.

Dear Vishwas,

In the case of re-appointment of MD, You need to file two forms viz:

01. Form 25C/25A, as the case may be, within 90 days from the date of passing of BR, and
02. Form 23 within 30 days from the date of BR.

Form-32 is not required in case of re-appointment of MD as there is no change in composition of board of director.

Further, General meeting may be a EGM or AGM.

Regards,
Deepesh

Good Morning all,

If we consider the matter of Re-appointment of MD's in the coming Board Meeting on 15th May' 2012 and then get confirm re-appointment in the next AGM on 31.07.2013, before expiring the term of MD i.e. before 15.11.2013 it ok.

But, if we decide that the same should be done after AGM i.e. 31.07.2013, then we will have only option to hold board meeting before 15.11.2013 say 14.11.2013 and for confirmation of the Shareholders in the GM we will have to wait for till next AGM of 2014.

Can we go with the second option, mean can we take the confirmation of members after expiring the term of MD (15.11.2013)????

Regards,
Deepesh
