<h1>Approval Required for Increasing Directors in Public Companies Under Section 259 of Companies Act, 1956</h1> Section 259 of the Companies Act, 1956, mandates that any increase in the number of directors in a public company or a private company that is a subsidiary of a public company requires approval from the Central Government. Exceptions are made for companies existing before July 21, 1951, if the increase is within the permissible maximum as per their articles at that time, and for companies formed after that date, if the increase is within the permissible maximum upon initial registration. If the permissible maximum is twelve or fewer, no government approval is needed unless the total exceeds twelve directors.
