Veedol Corporation Limited confirmed the appointment of Rajendra Nath Ghosal as Managing Director and approved its final dividend for FY26 at its 103rd Annual General Meeting on August 24, 2026.

The meeting, chaired by Chairman D. S. Chandavarkar, was conducted via Video Conferencing and Other Audio Visual Means. A total of 58 public members attended the proceedings, alongside two promoter representatives.

Key Resolutions Passed

Members voted on eight resolutions covering ordinary and special business items. The key outcomes included:

• Adoption of the Statement of Profit and Loss and Balance Sheet for the year ended March 31, 2026.
• Confirmation of first and second interim dividends and declaration of the final dividend for FY26.
• Re-appointment of Ananta Mohan Singh as a Director retiring by rotation.
• Appointment of Rajendra Nath Ghosal as a Director and his subsequent appointment as Managing Director from June 1, 2026, to March 31, 2027.

Voting Results Analysis

The official voting results disclosed that promoters held 11,252,858 shares, representing approximately 64.6% of the total 17,424,000 shares outstanding. Promoter voting participation was high for non-conflicted resolutions, with 100% of promoter shares voting in favour of the financial statements and dividend declarations.

For resolutions involving related-party transactions or director appointments where promoters had a conflict of interest, their votes were either abstained or marked invalid per regulatory norms. For instance, in the re-appointment of Ananta Mohan Singh, where one promoter was interested, 4,233,517 promoter votes were deemed invalid. Similarly, for the related-party transaction with Standard Greases & Specialities Private Limited, 7,019,341 promoter votes were invalid due to the interest of two promoters.

Despite lower promoter participation in conflicted votes, all resolutions passed comfortably with overwhelming support from public shareholders. Public institutional investors showed consistent support, while retail (non-institutional) public shareholders voted against certain management changes, though not enough to block them.

Related Party Transactions and Audits

The Board sought approval for related party transactions with Standard Greases & Specialities Private Limited and ENEOS VCL India Private Limited. These approvals cover the sale, purchase, or supply of goods and materials, as well as the rendering or availing of services.

Additionally, members ratified the remuneration of ₹3.00 lakhs plus out-of-pocket expenses for M/s. Harshad S. Deshpande & Associates for undertaking the cost audit for the financial year 2026-27.

Voting Process Details

Remote e-voting commenced on August 21, 2026, at 10:00 am and concluded on August 23, 2026, at 5:00 pm. Manoj Prasad Shaw was appointed as the scrutinizer for the e-voting process. The consolidated results were filed with the stock exchanges on August 25, 2026.

Veedol Corporation Limited has moved to seek shareholder approval for material related party transactions involving Standard Grease and Technologies Private Limited. The company's Board of Directors approved the circulation of a Postal Ballot Notice on August 15, 2026, marking the next step in the regulatory compliance process for these deals.

The disclosure was made pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended. This regulation mandates timely disclosure of material events to stock exchanges to ensure transparency in corporate governance.

Procedural Next Steps

The Postal Ballot Notice is scheduled to be sent to members in due course. Once circulated, the notice will also be filed with the National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. and BSE Limited. The process allows shareholders to vote on the proposed transactions without convening a general meeting.

Abhijit Tikekar, Company Secretary & Head - Legal & CSR at Veedol Corporation Limited, confirmed the board's decision in the filing. The company, formerly known as Tide Water Oil Company (India) Ltd., continues to adhere to listing compliance norms through such disclosures.
