a ca can be a director in a company. but if he is holding cop he can not. Since director is also employee of the comapny.

Permission to be Granted specifically by the council to a member as stated in Appendix no. 9 for Office of Managing Director or a whole-time Director of a body corporate within the meaning of the Companies Act, 1956, provided that the member and/or his relatives do not hold substantial interest in such a concern.

To my Knowledge, An Auditor Can be the Director for a Company, Unless he is the EMPLOYEE or have ANY OTHER RELATIONSHIP with that Company for being the STATUTORY AUDITOR. For INTERNAL AUDIT it doesn't the matter.

CA Can be a director of a company. If he is holding COP he cannot be a full time or part time director getting any remuneration but can be only a director and this position has to be informed to the Institute.
