GHCL Textiles Limited has circulated a notice for a postal ballot to seek shareholder approval for the introduction of the GHCL Textiles Employees Stock Option Scheme 2026 (ESOS 2026). The scheme aims to attract, retain, and motivate employees by aligning their interests with long-term shareholder value through equity-linked compensation. The proposed plan involves the issuance of fresh equity shares upon exercise of options, with no secondary acquisition or trust involvement.

The Board of Directors approved the scheme on July 30, 2026, recommending it for shareholder consent via special resolution under Section 62(1)(b) of the Companies Act, 2013 and Regulation 6 of the SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits and Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021. The company engaged Central Depository Services (India) Limited (CDSL) to facilitate remote e-voting, ensuring compliance with Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) circulars and SEBI Listing Regulations.

Scheme Details

The ESOS 2026 allows for the grant of up to 45,00,000 stock options, exercisable into an equivalent number of equity shares with a face value of ₹2 each. This ceiling represents approximately 4.70% of the paid-up equity share capital as of March 31, 2026. The scheme excludes promoters, independent directors, and directors holding more than 10% of outstanding equity shares.

Eligible participants include permanent employees working in India or abroad and whole-time directors. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee will determine eligibility based on service length, responsibility level, salary cost, and performance appraisals. Options must vest no earlier than one year from the grant date, subject to performance parameters set by the committee. In cases of death or permanent incapacity, unvested options vest immediately under Regulation 9(4) of the SEBI (SBEB & SE) Regulations.

Voting Process and Timeline

Shareholders whose names appear in the Register of Members or List of Beneficial Owners as of the cut-off date, Friday, August 07, 2026, are eligible to vote. The remote e-voting period commences on Wednesday, August 12, 2026, at 09:00 a.m. (IST) and concludes on Thursday, September 10, 2026, at 05:00 p.m. (IST). If approved by the requisite majority, the resolution will be deemed passed on September 10, 2026.

Mr. Manoj R. Hurkat, Practicing Company Secretary, has been appointed as the Scrutinizer to ensure a fair and transparent voting process. The results will be declared on or before Saturday, September 12, 2026, at the company’s corporate office in Noida. Individual demat holders can vote directly through their depository accounts (CDSL/NSDL) without separate registration, enhancing accessibility.

What the Numbers Show

The proposal to allocate 4.70% of the paid-up equity capital to employee incentives signals a strategic focus on human capital retention post-demerger. Since becoming a standalone entity effective April 1, 2023, following the demerger of the Spinning Division from GHCL Limited, the company has not had an active stock option scheme. Introducing ESOS 2026 aligns with standard practices for listed entities seeking to tie executive and employee compensation to market performance, using the Fair Value method for accounting as per Ind AS 102.
