Advocate Be a MD when he is not in practice

Mr MSC

The Bar Council membership itself makes the person eligible to practise, there is no separate certificate of practise issued, hence, your friend cannot be a MD without relinquishing his Bar membership.

sir,

your friend can become an MD only after intimating about his recognisation  to the state bar counsel.

then the state bar counsil will block his name menas susppend fomm the practise after his enure from the services as an MD the state bar counsel will un block his name then he can do practise.

thank you very much, it means he can be a Director not MD, 

Does he need to inform concerned Bar Council to becoming a Director?

Dear Srikanth, you mean to say there is an option for him to block  his membership and again he can unblock the same according to his convenient. 

Thanks a lot .

if the person not the member of any bar council or not a practising advocate,- has the liberty to be md or director or any other post

Before, I give my opinion, I want to say, that I know the discussion is going about an Advocate being appt as an MD. But, I cant stop myself to suggest that-

Instead of relinquishing your hard earned membership, it will be a better option to be an Independent Director. For money matters, you can always get sitting fees and you can raise bills on the company n number of times for your profeesional advice given.

Please let me know, whether an Advocate can be a Director of a PVT Limited Company or not? Please clear me

sir,

sure he can become

Except for giving legal advice, he can't take active part (like sign agreements, cheques, file income tax returns,  etc.)

Thanks a tonne everybody for enlightening me.

Best Regards
