A promoter is one of non-executive directors of a listed company in India.
Except sitting fee, he is not drawing any commission / remuneration.
Now, the company wanted to appoint this non-executive director as a whole-time director on its wholly owned foreign subsidiary and to pay salary / remuneration.
Please advise on the required approvals to be taken from the shareholders or any regulatory authorities.
In order to appoint any WTD the provisions of Section 269 read with schedule XIII are to be complied with.
Accordingly, the appointment can be made in Board Meeting however the remuneration is subject to the approval of shareholders by ways of ordinary/special resolution depending upon the proposed salary and paid up capital of the Company.
The Company is required to file form 32, 25C and 23(In case of special resolution).
