The said amendment quoted by you is clear that this will be applicable to the "employees of Corporation, Boards and undertaking of the state Government"

Your case in hand pertains o limited company,how do you think that this law will be applicable to your case?

Further being a lawyer yourself, you should know the procedures to be followed in this regard.
