09 May 2011 As per the provisions of section 309 of the Companies Act, 1956, remuneration shall include the amount paid for any services rendered by a Director in any other capacity. However, this will not be included if the services rendered are of professional nature and in the opinion of the Central Government, the concerned Director possesses requisite qualification and experience to practice such profession.

Hence,a Non Executive Director may be paid fees for the rendered by him any other capacity other than the sitting fees and such fees shall not be included in the limit of remuneration prescribed under Section 309 ofthe Companies Act, 1956 if in the opinion of the Central Government, ur Director possesses requisite qualification and experince to practice the profession.
