The board of Shree Hari Chemicals Export Limited approved alterations to its Memorandum of Association on August 25, 2026. The move expands the company’s permitted business activities into heavy machinery, infrastructure development, and general investments.
The proposal requires final approval from shareholders. The Board of Directors met on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, commencing at 12:15 pm and concluding at 6:00 pm. The decision was disclosed pursuant to Regulation 30 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
New Business Verticals
The alterations introduce three new sub-clauses under Clause III (A) - Main Objects Clause of the Memorandum of Association. These additions significantly broaden the scope of operations beyond the company’s existing chemical export focus.
Machinery and Equipment
Sub-clause (9) permits the company to deal in cranes, lifting equipment, material handling equipment, and heavy machinery. This includes construction, agricultural, earthmoving, and industrial machinery, as well as defence vehicles and utility vehicles.
The scope covers manufacturing, trading, importing, exporting, and leasing these items. Additionally, the company can undertake equipment management, refurbishment, modernization, retrofitting, repair, maintenance, servicing, overhauling, inspection, testing, installation, commissioning, and dismantling. It may also act as manufacturers’ representatives, dealers, distributors, stockists, commission agents, consultants, service providers, importers, exporters, contractors, and traders for these products and allied spare parts.
Infrastructure Development
Sub-clause (11) enables the company to plan, design, develop, construct, engineer, execute, operate, maintain, manage, improve, renovate, and provide infrastructure projects. This includes roads, highways, bridges, flyovers, tunnels, railways, metro systems, airports, ports, harbours, waterways, logistics parks, industrial parks, urban infrastructure, townships, commercial and residential infrastructure, water supply and treatment systems, sewage and drainage systems, waste management facilities, power and renewable energy infrastructure, transmission and distribution systems, and telecommunications infrastructure.
The company can undertake Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC), turnkey, design-build, operation and maintenance, project management, consultancy, and infrastructure development contracts. It may participate in public-private partnership, concession, Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT), Build-Own-Operate-Transfer (BOOT), Design-Build-Finance-Operate-Transfer (DBFOT), and similar arrangements. The clause also allows acquiring, purchasing, leasing, developing, constructing, operating, maintaining, managing, transferring, or dealing in infrastructure assets.
Investments
Sub-clause (10) allows the company to carry on the business of investment, acquisition, and dealing in land, shares, stocks, debenture stocks, bonds, derivatives, obligations, and securities. These securities may be issued or guaranteed by any company constituted or carrying on business in India or elsewhere. It also includes debentures, debenture stocks, bonds, obligations, and securities issued or guaranteed by any Government, State, dominion, sovereign, ruler, commissioners, public body or authority, supreme municipal local or otherwise, whether in India or abroad.
