Global Capital Markets Limited shareholders approved the adoption of audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, and the re-appointment of a director during the company's 37th Annual General Meeting (AGM).
The meeting, conducted via Video Conferencing on September 25, 2026, saw resolutions passed with requisite majority through remote e-voting facilitated by National Securities Depository Ltd. The scrutinizer report confirmed no physical ballots were received.
Meeting proceedings and attendance
Mr. I. C. Baid, Chairman and Managing Director, occupied the chair. A total of 58 members, including those from the promoter group, were present in the meeting. The quorum required under Section 103 of the Companies Act, 2013 was met, allowing the Chairman to call the meeting to order.
The Chairman informed members that the company is in compliance with applicable acts, rules, and secretarial standards regarding the convening of the meeting. The notice of the 37th AGM and the Auditor's Report were taken as read with the consent of the members present. Nine members registered as speakers, two of whom attended and had their queries addressed by the Chairman.
Voting outcomes and participation
The AGM addressed two ordinary resolutions: the adoption of financial reports and the appointment of Manish Baid as director in place of himself, who retired by rotation. Both items secured overwhelming support from participating shareholders.
| Resolution | Votes For | Votes Against | % For | Participants |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adoption of FY26 financial statements | 122,438,053 | 10,895 | 99.99% | 147 |
| Appointment of Manish Baid | 103,344,021 | 10,895 | 99.99% | 145 |
Scrutinizer observations
Kriti Daga, Practicing Company Secretary and appointed scrutinizer, noted that the remote e-voting period ran from September 22 to September 24, 2026. The cut-off date for eligibility was September 18, 2026.
A notable divergence exists in the voting data: while the percentage of votes cast "For" remained identical at 99.99% for both resolutions, the absolute number of votes supporting the director's appointment was approximately 19 million lower than those supporting the financial statements. This suggests that some shareholders who voted on the financials either abstained or did not participate in the specific vote regarding the director's re-appointment, despite the negligible opposition count remaining constant at 10,895 votes.
