The appointments include Mr. Dhanraj Onduji Tawade, Mr. Manoj Aggarwal, and Mr. Swarup Dasgupta.

The meeting also ratified the reclassification of Mrs. Husena Madam from the promoter group to the public shareholder category.
Board composition and governance updates
Shareholders voted on several key governance matters through remote e-voting and live e-voting. The agenda included the retirement by rotation of Mr. Shivrudrappa Anandappa Hanjage, who offered himself for reappointment. The newly appointed independent directors bring diverse expertise to the board:
- Mr. Dhanraj Onduji Tawade (DIN: 02911849): A civil engineering professional with approximately 37 years of experience in the Government of India. He retired as Member (Technical) at the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) under the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways.

- Mr. Swarup Dasgupta (DIN: 09138124): A banking professional with over four decades of experience in corporate credit and risk management. He currently serves as Advisor - Corporate Credit with Punjab & Sind Bank.
The company confirmed that none of the appointed directors are related to existing directors or debarred from holding office by SEBI or other authorities.
Financial statement adoption and voting details
The AGM considered the adoption of audited financial statements, including consolidated figures, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. The Company Secretary confirmed that there were no qualifications, observations, or adverse remarks in the reports of the Statutory Auditors, Secretarial Auditors, or Cost Auditors that would negatively impact the company's functioning. Consequently, these reports were taken as read with member consent.
Another ordinary resolution sought to ratify the remuneration payable to the Cost Auditor for FY27. Voting results were to be declared within two working days of the meeting. The combined report would be communicated to stock exchanges and uploaded on the company website and NSDL platform. Attendance data indicated low physical proxy presence but active digital participation:
