Govt to do away with sitting fee for directors

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) has decided to do away with the concept of sitting fee in the Companies Bill. Once the Bill is passed there will be a quarterly cap on the remuneration of independent directors subject to a maximum amount and the whole time director's pay will be linked to net profits on an annual basis.
