❓Frequently Asked Questions
Can a company remove a director without their consent?
Yes, a company can remove a director without their consent under the Companies Act, 2013. The removal can be done through a board resolution or shareholder vote in general meeting. The removed director will be notified, and DIR-12 will be filed with the Registrar of Companies.
What is the minimum number of directors a company must maintain?
A Private Limited Company must have a minimum of 2 directors at all times. A One Person Company (OPC) must maintain a minimum of 1 director. You cannot have zero directors in these company structures.
What forms are required to be filed for director removal or resignation?
DIR-12 (or DIR-11 for resignation) needs to be filed with the Registrar of Companies (ROC). This form captures the details of director cessation, whether by resignation, removal, or disqualification. We handle complete preparation and filing of these forms.
What is the timeline for filing DIR-12 after director removal?
DIR-12 must be filed within 30 days of the director's cessation date. Our service ensures timely filing to avoid penalties of ₹5,000 to ₹100,000 for late filing and potential DIN disqualification.
What happens to the director's DIN after removal or resignation?
After DIR-12 filing with ROC, the DIN becomes deactivated and the director ceases to be a director of the company. The person can still use the same DIN to become a director of another company if eligible. We track this deactivation process.
What is the difference between "With Consent" and "Without Consent" pricing?
"With Consent" (₹2,499) is for voluntary resignations where the director agrees. "Without Consent" (₹3,999) is for forced removals requiring board resolution and shareholder approval, which involves more documentation and legal procedures.
