Sayaji Hotels Limited has initiated a postal ballot and remote e-voting process to seek shareholder approval for providing financial assistance to entities where its directors are interested and to revise the remuneration of two promoters. The resolutions aim to authorize loans, guarantees, or securities up to an aggregate outstanding amount of ₹150 crore and to increase the monthly gross salary of Mrs. Saba Raoof Dhanani and Mrs. Sumera Raoof Dhanani to ₹4,60,000 each, effective from April 1, 2026.
The financial assistance, to be provided in one or more tranches, will be utilized for the principal business activities of the recipient entities. The Board of Directors will evaluate proposals and deploy funds from internal resources or other appropriate sources. The company stated that none of the directors or key managerial personnel are interested in the loan resolution beyond their shareholding in Sayaji Hotels Limited.
The revision in remuneration for the promoters, who hold offices of profit within the company, was approved by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors on May 28, 2026. The proposed annual remuneration for each promoter is approximately ₹55,20,000, which represents about 0.37% of the company's annual consolidated turnover for the financial year ended March 31, 2026. These transactions are classified as related party transactions under Section 188 of the Companies Act, 2013.
