Your company must have at least one director. Directors are legally responsible for running the company and making sure company accounts and reports are properly prepared.
All corporations, regardless of the state, must have a shareholder-elected Board of Directors. An LLC is not required to have a Board of Directors, but can adopt this form of management if the members (the owners of the LLC) choose to do so.
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.
In a private company the owners either run the company themselves or have the same power to replace the CEO/CFO, set company goals, determine executive compensation, etc. They can still have a Board of Directors as well, but it is not required.
A company that finds itself in the position without directors or fewer than the statutory minimum should immediately take steps to remedy this through a resolution of members to appoint new directors.
