Gogia Capital Growth Limited approved its Annual General Meeting notice, reclassified promoter holdings, and appointed a new statutory auditor and two independent directors at its board meeting on August 29, 2026.

The Board of Directors convened at the registered office in New Delhi. The session commenced at 2:00 pm and concluded at 2:50 pm after considering several regulatory and administrative matters under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.

M/s Arpit Garg & Associates (COP No. 22703), Practicing Company Secretaries, was appointed as the scrutinizer for the remote e-voting process and for providing the Scrutinizer's Report.

Promoter Reclassification

The board approved the reclassification of specific entities from the "Promoter/Promoter Group" category to the "Public" category, subject to shareholder approval and regulatory filings under Regulation 31A of SEBI LODR Regulations:

  • Mr. Satish Gogia
  • M/s Satish Gogia HUF
