Nothing contained in this sub-section shall disentitle a key managerial personnel from being a director of any company with the permission of the Board. Further, a whole-time key managerial personnel holding office in more than one company at the same time on the date of commencement of this Act, shall, within a period of six months from such commencement, choose one company, in which he wishes to continue to hold the office of key managerial personnel.
