Yes. You can initiate legal action against the MD.

First you send a notice demanding apology to the defamation and you can claim damages too.

If he fails to respond positively, then you can file a criminal complaint for defamation.

the company by sending emails to your customers / competitiors that you have indulged in malpratices and as removed from service amounts to defaming you .

issue legal notice immediatedly .

Send a legal notice asking them to furnish an apology and take back their malicious comments by either emailing or in a newspaper, failing which sue them - you have a positively good case.
