Expo Engineering & Projects has announced the book closure dates for its 43rd Annual General Meeting (AGM), which is scheduled to take place on Thursday, September 10, 2026. The company notified the Bombay Stock Exchange on August 12, 2026, that the register of members will be closed from Friday, September 4, 2026, through Thursday, September 10, 2026, both days inclusive. This closure ensures that only shareholders holding equity shares during this specific window are eligible to participate in the AGM proceedings.

The AGM is set to commence at 11:30 am on September 10, 2026. During the book closure period, no transfer of shares will be processed, meaning investors looking to trade their holdings must do so before September 4 or after September 10. The notice was signed by Hasanain S. Mewawala, Managing Director of the company, and digitally verified on August 12, 2026.

Key Dates and Details

The company, formerly known as Expo Gas Containers Limited, operates under the security code 526614 on the BSE. Its equity shares have a face value of ₹4 each. The announcement serves as a formal record for depositories, including National Securities Depository Ltd and Central Depository Services (India) Limited, as well as the company’s registrar, Adroit Corporate Services Private Limited.

What This Means for Shareholders

For retail and institutional investors, the primary implication of the book closure is a temporary restriction on share transfers. Investors who wish to vote or attend the 43rd AGM must ensure their names are recorded in the company’s register of members as of September 10, 2026. Those who sell their shares before September 4 will not be eligible to attend, while those who buy shares after September 10 will also miss this year’s meeting. The closure period aligns with standard corporate governance practices to determine the final list of eligible voters for annual resolutions.
