    Addition of Director

    A director is a person who the shareholders elect to manage all the affairs of the company. It is mandatory to provide the names of the first directors in the Articles of Association of the Company. Every time the addition of directors is done by the members of the company in the general meeting, excluding the first directors. An additional director can be appointed for the company, if required, in a meeting other than the General Meeting.

    • 3 in case of a Public Limited Company
