Every Director needs to perform his/her duties and responsibilities professionally and diligently, In case wherein the director is found to contravene the provisions of Companies Act, then Registrar of Companies (RoC) is empowered to declare such directors as disqualified. Directors Disqualification has severe effect; any Director who is declared disqualified cannot be served as director.

Further, if in a company there are 2 directors and one of the director is disqualified then as per the Companies Act to maintain minimum 2 directors in a private limited company, such private limited company also becomes inactive due to non maintenance of minimum number of directors. Any Director who has been disqualified cannot become director in any company for the period of five years starting from the date of disqualification.
