Dear Friends, In a Private Company, A & B are the only 2 directors and also the only 2 members. As per the provisions of Section 188 (1) of the Companies Act, 2013, the interested members cannot vote on special resolution and As per Rule 15 (2) of the Companies (Meetings of Board and its Powers) Rules, 2014, interested directors shall not be present in the meeting during discussion of related party transactions.
In this situation, how they will pass resolution in Board meeting and also in General Meeting for approval of related party transaction. Please suggest,,,,,,,,!!!

Q. How do we handle related party contract cases wherein the Company has only husband and wife as both Directors and members in a Company?
R:-These types of Companies have to bring in two outsiders as shareholders giving one share each and pass special resolutions for all related party contracts in a General Meeting and file E Form No.MGT14 and register such special resolutions. This is the only way these contracts could be regularized at least for the time being till the Ministry comes out with some relaxations/clarifications.
