ESOP in private company - Corporate Laws / SEBI / LLP

In case of issue of ESOPs in a private company, do we need to pass ordinary resolution or special resolution. Section 62(1)(b) was amended via notification G.S.R.464 (E) dated 5th June, 2015 and GSR 09(E) dated 04.01.2017 respectively, to exempt private companies from special resolution requirements. But rule 12 mandates SR. What needs to be done?
