EIH Limited shareholders overwhelmingly approved the declaration of a ₹1.50 per share dividend for FY26 and the re-appointment of Manoj Harjivandas Modi as a director during the company’s 76th Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on August 7, 2026. The virtual meeting, conducted via Video Conference and Other Audio Visual Means (VC/OAVM), saw nearly unanimous support across all four resolutions, reflecting strong stakeholder confidence in the company’s governance and financial stewardship.

The AGM was presided over by Executive Chairman Arjun Singh Oberoi, who addressed 72 members present virtually. The meeting commenced at 11:30 AM IST and concluded at 1:07 PM IST. Compliance with Regulation 30 read with Schedule III Part A of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosures Requirements) Regulations, 2015, was maintained throughout the process. Remote e-voting was facilitated by National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) from August 4 to August 6, 2026, while live e-voting occurred during the session.

Voting Results Overview

All resolutions passed with substantial majority support. The consolidated scrutinizer report, prepared by Jus & Associates under the supervision of Dr. Ajay Kumar Jain (FCS-1551), confirmed the validity of votes cast. A total of 441,826,956 votes were polled out of 625,364,182 shares held on the record date of July 31, 2026, representing a 70.65% participation rate.

Governance and Board Representation

Seven directors attended the meeting, ensuring robust board oversight. Attendees included Arjun Singh Oberoi (Executive Chairman), Vikramjit Singh Oberoi, Manoj Harjivandas Modi, Renu Sud Karnad, Raj Kumar Kataria, Peter James Holland Riley, and Chhavi Rajawat. Mr. Oberoi delivered a speech outlining operational achievements and future outlook, while the Notice of Meeting and Auditors’ Report were taken as read.

Scrutiny and Compliance

Dr. Ajay Kumar Jain, appointed as Scrutinizer by the Board on May 26, 2026, validated the e-voting process in accordance with Section 108 of the Companies Act, 2013 and Rule 20 of the Companies (Management and Administration) Rules, 2014. Witnesses CS Vandita Jain and CS Nikita Rohilla confirmed the unblocking of votes at 1:07 PM IST. The Consolidated Scrutinizer’s Report was submitted to stock exchanges on August 7, 2026, and is available on the company’s website and NSDL portal.

What the Numbers Show

The near-unanimous approval across all resolutions underscores strong alignment between promoters, institutional investors, and retail shareholders. Notably, promoter group holdings (205,423,072 shares) voted entirely in favour of all proposals, while public non-institutional investors showed 99.99% support for financial statements and dividend declaration. The minimal dissent — particularly 107,645 votes against Modi’s re-appointment from public institutions — reflects isolated concerns rather than systemic governance issues.
