Yes, Mayuri you can do so. Appointment can be wef 1st June 2012, even if that particular director is not having DIN on that date , you can apply for DIN after his appointment as Director and file Form 32.

Dear Mayuri
You can show his appointment w.e.f. 01.06.2012 and DIN can be applied and form 32 can be filed with MCA but as there is only one director in the company requirement of quoram would not be met therefore, a general meeting of members has to be called for his appointment. Therefore, you have to fie form 32 at the time of his appointment as additional director in Board meeting and then at them time of regularizing him which would be done at general meeting. Correct me if I am wrong.

Dear Deepika
As per Regulation 75 of Table A
In case the number of director reduce below the quorum fixed by the Act for a meeting of the Board, the Continuing Directors or Director shall act for the purpose of increasing hte number of directors to that fixed quorum, or of summoning a general meeting of the Company, but for no other purpose. The only director shall call the meeting to order and appoint an additional director only for the purpose of quorum then after act accordingly.
So appointment of Director (Additional Director) can bedone by one Continuing Director at Board Meeting, and thereafter by calling EGM before date of AGM you can regularise that particular additional Director as director of the company.

Ya.. in my view there is no problem at all . Additional Director appointed at Board Meeting, for which Form 32 is required to be filed within 30 days of his appointment. You can apply for DIn after his appointment. Its not prereqisite that to become a director he must have DIN on date of appointment it can be taken after his appointment by Board also.

Dear Smriti
Completely agree with your point and thats what I said in my reply that one director can appoint other person as Additional Director.

Dear Members,
Agree that an Additional Director can be appointed by the sole existing director. Subsequently, he can be proposed to be appointed as a regular director at the forthcoming GM, since the Additional Director holds office up to next AGM. Otherwise appointment of other person as a regular director should be made at such AGM.
However, as per the Proviso to Sec. 253 & 266G w.e.f. 01-11-2006, NO COMPANY shall appoint or re-appoint any Director unless he has been allotted DIN under sec. 266B.
Suggestions welcome,
Regards,
