Honasa Consumer Limited has scheduled its 10th Annual General Meeting for Monday, September 28, 2026. The meeting will be conducted via video conference to transact ordinary and special business items.
Key Agenda Items
The Board of Directors recommended a final dividend of ₹3 per equity share for the financial year ended March 31, 2026. This payout represents 30% on the face value of ₹10 per share. Shareholders whose names appear in the register of members as on Friday, August 28, 2026, will be eligible for the dividend.
The meeting will also address the re-appointment of Mr. Varun Alagh as a director upon his retirement by rotation. Additionally, shareholders will vote on the re-appointment of Mr. Subramaniam Somasundaram as an Independent Director for a second five-year term, effective from February 11, 2027.
Governance and Remuneration
Members will consider a special resolution to approve fees and compensation payable by way of commission to Non-Executive Directors, including Independent Directors. The proposed framework allows for payments up to 1% of the net profits of the company per annum, starting from the financial year 2027-28. This limit is calculated in accordance with Section 198 of the Companies Act, 2013.
