Dear Joji Jose,

In the given situation company should hold the Board meeting abroad, at the place where 2 directors of the company are present.They sign the Financial Statements abroad, mentioning the date & place of signing; then send the Statements to India for signature of the Auditors & their Reoprt thereon.Auditors are to mention date & place in India for signing the financial statements.
