Answer By law4u team

Yes. A director can be removed from a company under Indian law. According to the Companies Act, 2013 a director may be removed by the shareholders before the expiry of his or her term by passing an ordinary resolution in a general meeting. However proper notice must be given to the director and the director has the right to be heard before the resolution is passed. There are some exceptions. A director appointed by the Tribunal cannot be removed in this manner. Also in certain cases of proportional representation the removal process may differ based on the articles of the company. After removal the company must file the required forms with the Registrar of Companies to update the records.
