If the articles contains a provision for resignation of Director, then the said procedure has to be complied accordingly.
A director of a public company or a private limited company can tender his resignation unilaterally, without filing Form 32 and without sending notice to the Registrar of Companies. director has to send in writing a letter informing either the Chairman or the Secretary of the Company of his intention to resign from the office of director. Filling in Form 32 and giving intimation to the Registrar is the duty of the Company Secretary and not of the director who has resigned.

Mr. Arvind
This provision is valid to hold qualification shares for 2 months , if the condition is not such that he should have qualification shares in a period not less than 2 months from the date of appointment.
Directors has been given time of 2 month to have qualification shares from date of appointment if there is any condition in articles that he should have qualification shares within a period less than two month this condition is not valid as Stipulated in Section 270(2) of Companies Act.
Kindly check the time period of 2 months is for obtaining qualification shares or for holding qulaification shares for 2 months.

Dear Neha
As mentioned in Sec 273 of Companies Act, that Section 270 in which there is restriction with regard to minimum time limit and amount for qualification shares , this section does not apply to Private limited Company.

Dear Smiriti,
Right. Very true.
So that clearly means even a private comany can provide for obtaining qulification shares before appointment as director of company.
And hence answer to query of Mr. Arvind meena is -
Provision in the article of a private ltd company that for being a director of company must hold share for 2 months is valid.
