Procedure for adding new director name from ROC back end in MCA database where all directors become disqualified u/s 164(2)(a) of the Companies Act, 2013 for non filing financial statements for three consecutive financial years.
The action of MCA in mass disqualifying lakhs of directors of companies who have not filed financial statements for three consecutive years created a situation where all directors stood vacated from their office. The MCA taking cognizance of this problem had issued an internal circular dated 6th October, 2017 clarifying that the promoters of such companies may appoint new directors u/s 167(3). It also clarified that the Registrar of Companies (RoCs) already have a facility to add signatory details from the back end with the approval of Regional Director(RD)>
Now the MCA has prescribed procedure for adding/inserting the name of a new director in MCA database from back end where all the existing directors stand vacated due to disqualification under section 164(2)(a) r/w 167(1) of the Companies Act, 2013.
