RMC Switchgears has issued a postal ballot notice seeking shareholder approval for the purchase of industrial land from a related party and the appointment of Mr. Dilip Panjwani as an independent director. The voting window opens on September 13, 2026, and closes on October 12, 2026.
The Board of Directors approved both resolutions on September 12, 2026, during a meeting held via video conferencing at its Jaipur office. Shareholders holding shares as on September 4, 2026, are eligible to vote via remote e-voting through Central Depository Services Limited (CDSL).
Land Purchase Details
The company proposes to acquire industrial land situated in Jaipur from Mr. Ankit Agrawal, a related party, for a total consideration of ₹22.2 crore. The property is currently used by the company’s subsidiary, RMC Green Energy Private Limited.
| Particulars | Details |
|---|---|
| Seller | Mr. Ankit Agrawal (Related Party) |
| Proposed Consideration | ₹22.2 crore |
| Fair Market Value | ₹22.42 crore |
| Current Annual Rent | ₹36 lakh |
| Purpose | Operational stability and cost savings |
The transaction is structured as an ordinary resolution under Section 188 of the Companies Act, 2013. The proposed consideration is ₹22.32 lakh lower than the assessed fair market value of ₹22.42 crore. The acquisition aims to eliminate recurring rental expenses of ₹3 lakh per month currently paid by the subsidiary, thereby providing long-term operational stability.
The company’s annual consolidated turnover for FY26 was ₹401.59 crore. The proposed transaction value does not exceed 10% of this turnover (₹40.159 crore), meaning it does not qualify as a material related-party transaction under Regulation 23 of the SEBI LODR Regulations. Consequently, shareholder approval is sought pursuant to Section 188 of the Companies Act rather than Regulation 23(4) of SEBI LODR.
Director Appointment
Mr. Dilip Panjwani (DIN: 02205645) has been appointed as an Additional Director in the category of Non-Executive Independent Director, effective September 12, 2026. His formal appointment as an Independent Director for a three-year term until September 11, 2029, requires shareholder approval via a special resolution.
Mr. Panjwani brings over 25 years of experience in financial management, corporate governance, and mergers & acquisitions. He is a Chartered Accountant and Company Secretary with prior senior roles including CFO at Hinduja Group and Waaree Renewable Technologies Limited. He will receive sitting fees of ₹7,000 per meeting.
Voting Process
Mrs. Megha Khandelwal (FCS: 10237) has been appointed as the scrutinizer for the postal ballot process. The results will be declared on or before October 14, 2026. Physical copies of the notice are not being sent; voting is exclusively through the remote e-voting system.
The trading window for designated persons remains closed until September 15, 2026, following the mandatory 48-hour cooling-off period post-board meeting.
