As per section 285 of the cpmpanies act, 1956 it is mandatory for a company to conduct a board meeting in each quarter.

If you conduct 4 board meeting in a months then this is not the correct compliance of section 285.

Section 285 is about at least one board meeting in each quarter.

Revert if there is any doubt.

I too agree with Ankur Garg sir, but I would like to know that what if sec 285 is not complied means what will be its Consequences on not having a Board meeting at least one board meeting in each quarter
