Can a director be appointed directly as a Director without being appointed as an Additional Director in a private Company if yes please do provide under which section

A person can be appointed as a director directly at the agm of the company. While sending the notice of agm the subject has to be brought in.
Refer Section 257 of the companies act - Right of persons other than retiring directors to stand for diretorship.

At the next agm the person will automatically resign and he shall be reappointed as a director in that agm.
While passing the resoultion what you have passed - ie as director or additional director and in form 32 what you have ticked - ie director or additonal director.
If you have ticked as director now file the addendum to the filed form 32 stating it as additional director.

To a certain extent i disagree with the Ist answer.
A person can be appointed as a director directly at the General Meeting. It may be AGM or EGM of the company as Section-257 talks about General Meeting.
Next time avoid any kind of attachment in form-32 as nothing is required to attach.
