Dear Shivam,
The reply depends on how much empowerment HR enjoys. In bigger companies, HR may or may not be empowered. In smaller companies generally these decisions are taken by MD or CEO.
By the way, between Board of Directors (BoD) and HR, a layer of hierarchy lies called as MD or CEO. Why you have queried about intimation to BoD and not someone in between?
Thanks,

Peoples sometime asks irrelevant questions here which do not have any connection or concern with the applicable laws or rules. Whether HR can increase the salary without informing the BOD or MD? How we can answer?
Mr. Dinesh has rightly said that it depends upon management to management and no hard and fast rules is framed under any labour laws. He can increase if he is empowered or have to seek permission if he is not having enough liberty to decide the increase.

Dear Shivam,
When requisition for the recruitment is sent to the recruitment section, obviously the HR or the department concerned, intimates the salary range in which the job candidate needs to be selected. This range should give rough idea to the HR or recruiter. In case if HR is unable to find the right candidate in the specified salary range then HR can very well take up the matter to the CEO.
Going further, at the time of recruitment, HR generally just asks the salary expected. HR does not decide the salary per se. Therefore, question of you deciding the salary or "increasing" salary does not arise.

Mr. AMTGUP,
The question arises, are you testing the knowledge of the members or putting some examination question to your students?
Where is the question of supposition like, "suppose A HR is going to recruit the Accountant ............"? Question of supposition does not arise, if there is some real problem, which you do not seem to have.
If you belong to the decision making authorities of HR, you should have referred to delegated powers conferred to the authorities by the company Board, instead of asking such a vague question.
However, if you don't belong to the decision making authorities in HR by holding some responsible post, you should have mentioned the purpose for what you have asked such a question.
