Change in Directorship

Here is all you need to know about the service you are looking for

Directors are appointed by the shareholders of a Company for the management of a Company. A Private Limited Company is required to have a minimum of two Directors and a Public Limited Company is required to have a minimum of three Directors. Director Identification Number or DIN is a unique number allotted by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs for any person who is a Director of a Company or proposes to be the Director of a Company.

Appointment or removal of a Director or Designated Partners is thus required due to various reasons. A director is required to hold directorship only in such number of companies as specified in the Act. The change in directors are required to be intimated to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs as and when such change arises.  At Ebizfiling, our ROC team of experts will ensure compliance matters relating to Change in Directorship.
