Appointment of company secretary

This query is : Resolved 

06 December 2012 Hi,
sec. 292 of the companies act specifies certain powers should be exercised only at the board meeting but it does not says about the appointment of Company Secretary only in Board meeting my question is Whether a company secretary can be appointed through circular resolution? .The companies act didn’t mandates the appointment of CS thro BM but secretarial standard- 1 on meeting of Board of directors specifies that CS should be appointed only in BM. My another question If a CS appointed through Circular resolution means ( AOA of the company permits ) how we can file form-32 without Board resolution or we can file it with the circular resolution?? Please clarify in detail.

06 December 2012 Hi

Yes, you can appoint CS through Circular Resolution and in Form-32 mention the date of appointment as mentioned in letter of appointment.


It is not mandatory to appoint CS at Board Meeting.

07 December 2012 Thanks, but is it not mandatory to attach board resolution copy along with e-form 32 at the time of filing?
