Agreeing with Ratan, As long as shareholders are their, the company will not die, its a seperate legal entity. The directors are just agents. If drectors died then will appoint new directors.

The Shareholders have the right to appoint the new Directors.

In case, the Directors were also the Shareholders then after their death the Shares pass on to their legal heirs or any person/s earlier appointed as Nominee by the Directors (while they were alive).

So the legal heirs have the right to appoint the new Directors (Also they can appoint themselves as Directors if they satisy the conditions mentioned in Companies Act, 1956) i.e. they should be major, should not be of unsound mind.
