What the Numbers Show
The voting pattern highlights significant concentration of influence within the promoter group, which accounted for 98.58% of all valid votes cast. While public non-institutional shareholders showed slight dissent—with 32 to 33 votes against the director reappointments—their impact on the outcome was negligible due to low overall participation.
