Resignation of Director in India

An Overview - Resignation of Director

Resigning as a director is equivalent to quitting a job or position. It is a personal option or decision made by the departing individual. Consequently, when a director resigns, he or she must inform the company's management team. This requires the corporation to release him of his obligations and duties. The director must also send a copy of the resignation letter to the registrar of companies (ROC) within a predetermined timeframe.

It is not necessary for management to accept the resignation letter for it to take effect. Indeed, it is effective as of the date of submission, providing the resignation is filed with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) within the allotted time frame
