Resolutions Passed
The first resolution concerned the re-appointment of Satish Agrawal (DIN-00167589) as a non-executive independent director. The term is set for five years, effective from November 3, 2026, to November 2, 2031. This marks his second term in this capacity.
The second resolution approved the payment of remuneration to Rakesh Kumar Gangwar (DIN-09485856), the managing director. The approval covers a one-year period from August 13, 2026, to August 12, 2027.
What the Numbers Show
The promoter group’s complete participation contrasts sharply with the retail segment. While promoters cast 100% of their votes, public other shareholders voted only 1.05% of their holdings. Despite this low participation rate among retail investors, the resolutions passed comfortably due to the promoter bloc’s decisive support.
Nirbhay Kumar & Associates served as the scrutinizer for the process. The remote e-voting window ran from August 19, 2026, to September 17, 2026.
