First understand remuneration committee is must to take the benefit of sch XIII.
Profit must be as per the last audited balance sheet.
The total managerial remuneration payable by a public company or a private company which is a subsidiary of a public company, to its directors and its manager in respect of any financial year shall not exceed 11% of the net profits of the company for that financial year. Such net profits shall be computed in a manner laid down under sections 349 and 350, except that the remuneration of the directors shall not be deducted from the gross profits.

Thanks for the reply. Please clarify as to whether there is any limit based on the share capital of the company to constitute remuneraration committee or each of the public company is required to constitute the committee.
Further as you mentioned that profit for calculation of managerial remuneration should be as per last audited balance sheet, what would be the answer in case books of accounts were reviewed by the auditors for the period ending Sep 09 and later on the books were audited for the year ended mar 10 for the Financial year 2009-2010 and the MD retitred on 30th september 2009.
Should the profit be taken for the six months period during which the MD was employed or it would be for the whole year?

Constitution of remuneration committee is not dependent on share capital. If you want to give remuneration as per part II of Sch XIII, you have to constitute remuneration committee irrespective of your share capital.
As per my opinion profit should be the profit for whole year. Further if you are using sch XIII then pay remuneration as per Sch XIII tables and effective capital of the company. In that case there is no need to base remuneration on net profit.
Read Sch XIII carefully.
