It differ from case to case and law applicable.
Consult a local company Secretary.

Normally company appoints as per bye laws and the existing incumbent is eligible for re-appointment quoting the bye laws he will be done. You can consult a practicing lawyer on this area for the right advise if your company has no company secretary.
