BOARD RESOLUTION FOR OPENING OF BANK ACCOUNT

BOARD RESOLUTION FOR OPENING OF BANK ACCOUNT


A Board resolution merely certifies and documents a particular decision taken by the Board of Directors of a company. All the relevant decisions made by the Board are documented by the passing of the resolution for the same. However, for the passing of a particular resolution to stand valid, there are certain prerequisites which need to be satisfied:-
The minimum number of directors must be present in order to constitute a Quorum.
The resolution has to be passed on the letterhead of the company.
The company files must contain the said resolution within 30 days of the Board Meeting.
A chairperson will be appointed for the meeting.
Who can sign the board resolution?
As per Sec. 21 of Companies Act 2013, resolution can be signed by any Key Managerial Personnel (which includes a Managing Director) or an officer of the company duly authorized by the Board. Hence there is nothing illegal, if the resolution is signed by the Managing Director.
How long is a board resolution valid?
A maximum of seven days from the date of receipt of draft of the resolution may be given to the Directors to respond and the last date should be computed accordingly.

What is exactly meant by board Resolution for Opening of Bank Account?
Board resolution for opening a bank account is a resolution passed in a Board Meeting authorizing certain persons in a company to open and operate the Bank account of a Company or LLP.
Why Board Resolution needed for Opening Of  Bank Account?

A distinct feature of companies is the fact that they operate as a separate legal entity in the eyes of the law. This means that the company can hold property in its own name. In light of this, the bank account of the company is usually opened in the name of the company itself. However, in order to carry on the regular functioning of this bank account, at least one authorised signatory needs to be appointed. The person appointed as the authorised signatory will require his signature to be provided for any bank-related work with regard to the company account moving forward.
