Ambo Agritec has scheduled its 32nd Annual General Meeting for September 26, 2026. The meeting will address significant corporate governance changes, including an increase in authorised share capital and alterations to the Memorandum of Association.
The company will hold the meeting through Video Conferencing or Other Audio Visual Means (VC/OAVM). Remote e-voting facilities will be available from September 23 to September 25, 2026, with a cut-off date of September 19, 2026.
Capital and Structural Changes
Shareholders will consider an ordinary resolution to increase the authorised share capital from ₹25 crore to ₹55 crore. This involves creating 3 crore additional equity shares of ₹10 face value each. The board had previously approved a similar hike in April 2025, but that proposal was not given effect to.
Additionally, the company seeks approval to alter its object clause in the MOA. The proposed additions expand the company’s scope to include:
- Manufacturing and trading of electrical and electronic goods
- Franchise operations across various sectors including FMCG and retail
- Beverage manufacturing and bottling
- Contract manufacturing services
- Commercial exploitation of movable and immovable properties
Director Remuneration Ratification
The AGM agenda includes special resolutions to waive the recovery of excess managerial remuneration paid during FY25. The aggregate remuneration paid to Managing Director Umesh Kumar Agarwal and Whole-time Director Saikat Chatterjee exceeded the statutory limit of 10% of net profits by ₹9.48 lakh. Similarly, Executive Director Rang Nath Lahoti’s remuneration exceeded the 1% statutory limit by ₹4.71 lakh.
The board recommends these waivers, stating the payments were fair and commensurate with responsibilities. Furthermore, shareholders will vote to increase the overall maximum managerial remuneration limit from 11% to 30% of net profits. This change aims to align remuneration limits with the consolidated operations of the company rather than just standalone profits.
Board Appointments
Mr. Umesh Kumar Agarwal is up for re-appointment as Managing Director for a further period of five years, effective from August 25, 2025, till August 24, 2030. Mr. Saikat Chatterjee retires by rotation and offers himself for re-appointment.
Financial Context
For FY25, the company reported a turnover of ₹12,001.99 lakh and a profit after tax of ₹190.74 lakh. The proposed structural changes and capital increase are intended to support future operational expansion and strategic flexibility.
