A.A directors liability is limited to the share that he has subscribed to the company whether it is nidhi limited company or private limited company. But if a company engages into a criminal or fraudulent activity, like satyam computers, then the liability of the directors are unlimited that means the directors will be taken to custody and the case will be opened against them too.
If the Directors knew about the malpractices or authorized the malpractices then they will go behind the bars.
