25 February 2014 1. A director can lease out his PERSONAL property to the employees of the company in which he is a director since it is an agreement between the director & the employees.

2. Further, the property is the personal property of the director & not of the company.

3. However, you have to ensure that rent amount is NOT deducted from the salary of the employees. The company should NOT have any transactions regarding rental.
