MR-1 · Managerial Appointment · Companies Act, 2013

MR-1 — Appointment of MD/WTD/Manager your managerial appointment, filed right.

MR-1 filing services in Mumbai and across India — appointment of a managing director, whole-time director, or manager, board and shareholder approvals, and intimation to the Registrar in Form MR-1.

A managing director, whole-time director, or manager holds the key executive authority in a company — the person who actually runs it day to day. Because these are positions of significant power and accountability, the Companies Act, 2013 treats their appointment as a formal event that must be approved correctly and reported to the Registrar of Companies.

The appointment of a managing director, whole-time director, or manager is intimated to the Registrar through Form MR-1. The appointment itself requires a board resolution and, in many cases, approval by shareholders, and it must comply with the conditions and eligibility requirements that the Act sets for managerial personnel — including, where applicable, the rules on managerial remuneration.

Our MR-1 practice manages the full appointment — confirming the eligibility of the proposed appointee, drafting the board and shareholder resolutions, ensuring the terms of appointment and remuneration comply with the Act, and filing Form MR-1 with the Registrar within the deadline. The result is a managerial appointment that is properly approved and correctly on record.
