Board Proceedings

The Board of Directors convened on August 31, 2026, from 5:00 pm to 6:50 pm. In addition to finalizing the AGM schedule and recommending the dividend, the Board disclosed the outcome to stock exchanges pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements Regulations, 2015.

Chaman Lal Setia Exports has submitted its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for the financial year ended March 31, 2026, detailing its operational performance and ESG compliance under SEBI regulations.

The Amritsar-based rice exporter reported a total turnover of ₹13,999.91 crore for FY26. Profit after tax stood at ₹1,147.79 crore. Exports contributed 91% of the total turnover, underscoring the company’s heavy reliance on international markets across more than 95 countries.

Financial Overview

The company’s net worth was reported at ₹75,799.17 lakh, excluding revaluation reserves. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) spending accounted for 3.15% of the profit after tax. The entity operates on a standalone basis with no subsidiaries, holding companies, or joint ventures.

What the Numbers Show

The data reveals a significant divergence between revenue scale and related-party transaction volume. While total sales reached nearly ₹14,000 crore, sales to related parties amounted to only ₹484.96 crore, representing just 3.46% of total sales. This is a notable reduction from 7.69% in FY25, suggesting a deliberate shift toward independent market channels or a restructuring of internal supply dynamics.

Stakeholder Engagement

The company resolved all 17 shareholder complaints received during the year, with none pending at year-end. One employee grievance was also addressed satisfactorily. The board comprises eight directors, with women holding 37.5% of the seats. Key Management Personnel includes one female member, indicating full gender representation at that level.

Environmental Metrics

Total energy consumption from non-renewable sources was 93,703.65 million joules, while renewable sources contributed 35.09 million joules. Scope 1 emissions totaled 179.86 metric tonnes of CO2 equivalent, and Scope 2 emissions were 2,227.31 metric tonnes. The company generated 198.85 metric tonnes of waste, primarily plastic, all of which was recycled through authorized vendors.

Water withdrawal increased to 16,236.61 kiloliters from ground sources, up from 10,904.5 kiloliters in the previous year. The company asserts it does not operate in ecologically sensitive areas and complies with all applicable environmental laws.
