13 January 2015 Hello,
We have a client. There are four private Companies whose directors are interested parties in all four Companies(i.e. directors in all 4). The purchase & sale transaction between two of these companies requires Board approval as per Sec 188. But since interested parties cannot participate this is not possible. There are also some other shareholders apart from these directors. But approval through general meeting is also difficult since the other shareholders are unable to attend the meeting in any case due to some reasons. So how can we comply with the section 188. Please suggest me the solution for this.
