Our Services

Removing a director from a company is a significant decision that requires careful adherence to legal procedures as outlined in the Companies Act, 2013. Whether it’s due to resignation, disqualification, or a board decision, WeIncept provides expert guidance in managing the process of removing directors, ensuring that it is done legally and efficiently without disrupting business operations.

What Does Removing a Director Involve?

The removal of a director can occur for various reasons, such as voluntary resignation, disqualification, non-attendance of board meetings, or a decision by the shareholders or board of directors. The removal must be documented appropriately through board resolutions, shareholder meetings (if required), and filed with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) using Form DIR-12.

Key Services Offered by WeIncept for Removing Directors:

• Resignation Filing: We assist directors who wish to voluntarily resign by drafting the resignation letter, board resolution, and handling the filing of Form DIR-12 with the ROC.
• Board Meeting Documentation: We help schedule and document the board meetings required for passing a resolution to remove the director.
• Filing Form DIR-12: We manage the filing of Form DIR-12 to notify the ROC of the director’s removal, ensuring legal compliance.
• Legal Support: In case of a contested removal, we provide support in drafting legal notices, communicating with stakeholders, and ensuring that the removal is done as per the legal requirements.
• Ongoing Compliance Management: After the director's removal, we ensure that all related filings and updates are made in accordance with MCA and ROC requirements.

Documents Required for Removing a Director:

The following documents are typically required when removing a director from a company:

• Director's resignation letter (if applicable)
• Board resolution for director’s removal
• Proof of non-attendance at board meetings (if removal is due to absenteeism)
• Form DIR-12 for filing with the Registrar of Companies (ROC)
• Minutes of the board or shareholders' meeting approving the removal

Step-by-Step Process for Removing a Director:

1. Consultation & Document Collection: We begin by understanding the reason for the director's removal and collecting the necessary documents from the company and director.
2. Resignation (if applicable): If the director is resigning voluntarily, we assist in drafting the resignation letter and board resolution.
3. Board Resolution & Meeting: We help schedule a board meeting to pass the necessary resolution for the director’s removal and draft the minutes of the meeting.
4. Filing Form DIR-12: Once the board has passed the resolution, we file Form DIR-12 with the ROC to notify them of the director’s removal.
5. Final Compliance & Updates: After the ROC approval, we provide final confirmation and ensure that the director's details are updated in the company’s records.
