Board Resolution Format for Revocation of Power of Attorney

The principal or the grantor, who has given the power of attorney in favor of the agent or the attorney, has the right to revoke / cancel / terminate the power of attorney so granted. Though in case of irrevocable Power of Attorney the situation is a little different.

In case of a company, the power of attorney granted to one or more officials through a board resolution can be revoked by the passing of a new resolution in the meeting of the board of directors.

Template of such board resolution is as follows —

SAMPLE #1

#. To revoke the power of attorney granted in favour of Mr. ......................

❝RESOLVED THAT the Power of Attorney granted in favour of (Name of the Officer), (Designation) of the company, through the resolution no. .... passed in the ...th meeting of the Board dated .......................... to act on behalf of the company for the purposes mentioned in the said resolution and in the Power of Attorney document executed on .................., be and is hereby revoked, withdrawn and rescinded in all respects with effect from .................
