<h1>New Circular Exempts Certain Unlisted Public Companies from Appointing Independent Directors Under 2017 Amendment Rules.</h1> The Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued a circular on September 5, 2017, clarifying exemptions for certain unlisted public companies from appointing independent directors under the Companies (Appointment and Qualification of Directors) Amendment Rules, 2017. Specifically, unlisted public companies that are joint ventures, wholly owned subsidiaries, or dormant companies are exempt from this requirement. The circular further clarifies that a 'joint venture' refers to a joint arrangement in writing, where parties have joint control and rights to the net assets, aligning with the definition used in Accounting Standards. This clarification follows stakeholder inquiries regarding the term's definition.
