said that an individual rejected by shareholders at a basic meeting can be appointed or re-appointed as a managing director or entire time
director or supervisor, only after supplying comprehensive validations and making sure compliance with different conditions
The appointment or a re-appointment of an individual, consisting of as a managing director (MD) or an entire time director (WTD) or a
manager, who was earlier rejected by the shareholders at a basic meeting, will be done only with the prior approval of the shareholders,
the regulator stated in a notification on Monday.For considering the visit or re-appointment of such a person earlier declined by the
shareholders, there ought to be a detailed description and justification by the company's nomination and reimbursement committee and the
board of directors for suggesting the person.As per the Companies Act, 2013, the board can not appoint an individual who fails to get
elected as a director at a basic conference as an additional director.However, this does not clearly forbid the board from re-appointing an
individual as an MD or WTD, whose consultation to such posts was turned down by the shareholders at the general meeting.Further, the board
of a noted entity can continue to appoint such persons as WTD or MD even after subsequent rejections by the shareholders.SEBI has actually
modified the Listing of Commitments and Disclosure Requirements (LODR) Laws with regard to the appointments.Separately, it has also changed
the guidelines relating to credit score agencies
