Jagran Prakashan Limited has published newspaper advertisements on May 6, 2026, in Business Standard (English edition) and Dainik Jagran (Hindi edition), notifying members of its Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) scheduled for May 29, 2026. The intimation was filed with stock exchanges pursuant to Regulation 30 read with Schedule III of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The EGM follows the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Allahabad's dismissal of applications related to director removal requisitions, with the Board of Directors having approved the EGM convening through a circular resolution dated May 2, 2026.

EGM Details and Proposed Resolutions

The EGM will be held on Friday, May 29, 2026, at 12:30 PM (IST) through Video Conferencing (VC) / Other Audio-Visual Means (OAVM). The meeting has been convened on the requisition of Jagran Media Network Investment Private Limited (JMNIPL), which holds 67.97% of the paid-up equity share capital of the company, under Section 100(2) of the Companies Act, 2013. The EGM will consider resolutions for removing eight directors from their respective positions.

NCLT Order and Legal Background

The NCLT's decision on April 23, 2026, vacated the interim order that had kept the EGM in abeyance since February 27, 2026, by dismissing three connected applications filed by various parties in the ongoing corporate dispute. The applications arose from a requisition dated February 12, 2026, sent by JMNIPL seeking to convene an EGM for removing directors.
