Pace Digitek has scheduled its 19th Annual General Meeting for September 21, 2026, to transact ordinary and special business. The meeting will be held via video conferencing at 11:30 am. The company also released its Annual Report for FY26 on August 27, 2026.
The company dispatched the notice and integrated annual report to shareholders with registered email addresses on August 27, 2026. A letter containing web-links and QR codes for accessing the report was sent to members without registered emails. The documents are also available on the company website and stock exchange portals.
The agenda includes the reappointment of Chairman and Managing Director Venugopalrao Maddisetty, who retires by rotation. Shareholders will also approve the appointment of Maya Swaminathan Sinha as a Women Independent Director for a five-year term commencing June 20, 2026.
Corporate Governance Changes
Ms. Sinha, a retired Indian Revenue Service officer, brings over 28 years of experience in public administration and corporate governance. She currently serves on the boards of Ceinsys Tech Limited, Swan Defence and Heavy Industries Limited, and Vishnusurya Projects and Infra Limited.
The company also seeks approval for the remuneration of Ms. Lahari Maddisetty, daughter of the CMD, who holds an office of profit in material subsidiary Lineage Power Private Limited. Her annual remuneration is capped at ₹50 lakh.
Financial Approvals
A significant portion of the special business involves related-party transactions under Section 185 of the Companies Act, 2013. The board seeks shareholder consent to provide loans, guarantees, or security to three entities in which directors have an interest.
| Entity | Relationship | Proposed Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Lineage Power Private Limited | Material Subsidiary | Up to ₹200 crore |
| Pace Renewable Energies Private Limited | Wholly Owned Subsidiary | Up to ₹200 crore |
| Inso Pace Private Limited | Subsidiary | Up to ₹200 crore |
These approvals are specific mandates under Section 185, distinct from the broader Section 186 limits approved by shareholders in October 2024. The funds are intended for the principal business activities of these subsidiaries.
Other Resolutions
The meeting will also ratify the remuneration of M/s Kamalakara & Co. as Cost Auditors for FY27, fixed at ₹2 lakh plus taxes. Additionally, CS Pramod S will be appointed as Secretarial Auditor for five years, from FY27 to FY31.
