Natura Hue Chem Limited has clarified the circumstances surrounding the departure of Mr. Aditya Sharma as an Independent Director, confirming his tenure ended on June 29, 2026. In a subsequent filing dated August 14, 2026, the company acknowledged a delay in making this disclosure, attributing it to an inadvertent internal oversight rather than any intention to suppress information.

Mr. Sharma ceased to hold his position as an Independent Director and consequently stepped down from all Board committees, including the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, effective from the end of the day on June 29, 2026. The company stated that the delay occurred due to an error in completing the requisite disclosure formalities within the prescribed timeline under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.

Disclosure Clarification

The company emphasized that upon identifying the oversight, it took immediate steps to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. Natura Hue Chem assured stakeholders that it has taken note of the incident and will implement measures to strengthen internal monitoring processes to prevent similar delays in future disclosures required under SEBI LODR Regulations.

Key Details

The initial intimation was signed by Komal Goyal, Company Secretary and Compliance Officer, and submitted to the Bombay Stock Exchange on August 12, 2026. The clarification regarding the delay was filed two days later on August 14, 2026, referencing the earlier corporate announcement.

Natura Hue Chem Limited re-appointed Aditya Sharma as an independent director for a five-year term, effective from August 12, 2026. The tenure covers financial years 2026-27 through 2030-31 and is subject to shareholder approval at the company’s upcoming Annual General Meeting.

The Board of Directors approved the decision during its meeting held on August 12, 2026 in Raipur. Mr. Sharma holds a Bachelor of Engineering degree in Mechanical Engineering and brings extensive experience in plant and machinery management. His profile includes expertise in technical operations, maintenance, and commercial matters, which the company cited as valuable for strategic decision-making.

Key Appointments

The Board also addressed compliance requirements for the upcoming fiscal year by re-appointing its internal auditor.

M/s. Suraj Rajput & Co, a firm of practicing chartered accountants based in Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh, was appointed to conduct the internal audit for FY27 pursuant to Section 138 of the Companies Act, 2013. The firm specializes in taxation and business laws.
