See highlighted text below
Director / Relative should not be employee / partner / proprietor of legal or consultancy firm which has any transaction with company / holding / subsidiary / associate exceeding 10% of gross turnover of such legal or consultancy firm, during immediately preceding 3 financial years  
Eg Legal Fees from Subsidiary 50,00,000 Gross Turnover of Legal Firm 2,00,00,000 so that is 25% then employees / partners / proprietors of such firm during immediately preceding 3 years cannot become independent director.
