As per Section 134(6) of the Companies Act, 2013, the Board's report and any annexures thereto, shall be signed by the Chairperson of the company if he is authorised by the Board and where he is not so authorised, shall be signed by at least two directors, one of whom shall be a managing director, or by the director where there is one director. Section 137(1) of the Companies Act, 2013 provides that a copy of financial statements, including consolidated financial statement, if any, along with all documents required to be attached to such financial statements under the Companies Act, 2013 duly adopted at the annual general meeting or adjourned annual general meeting of the company shall be filed with the Registrar of Companies within 30 days of annual general meeting or adjourned annual general meeting along with the prescribed fees.
