A company must file the following forms with the ROC to add a new director: MGT-14 – Resolution passed in the general meeting regarding the appointment of the director. DIR-2 – Consent received by the proposed director to hold the position of a director in the company. DIR-12 – Particulars of appointment of the director.
Most commonly, directors are appointed by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting (AGM), or in extreme circumstances, at an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM). A resolution for the appointment is put to a vote, and passed if a majority of shares are voted in favour.
