Zeal Aqua issued a revised intimation to BSE Limited on September 7, 2026, to replace an incorrect attachment submitted with its earlier disclosure dated September 5, 2026. The correction pertains to the re-appointment of Mr. Dhavalkumar Shantilal Patel as Whole-time Director.
The company clarified that there is no change in the information or disclosure contained in the original intimation dated September 5, 2026. The submission was made solely to update the records with the correct attachment following an inadvertent error in the initial filing.
Correction Details
The revised intimation under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, addresses a discrepancy in the Director Identification Number (DIN) provided in the initial submission.
| Field | Original Submission (Sep 5) | Corrected Submission (Sep 7) |
|---|---|---|
| Director Name | Dhavalkumar Shantilal Patel | Dhavalkumar Shantilal Patel |
| Role | Whole-time Director | Whole-time Director |
| DIN | 07886785 | 02961674 |
The corrected DIN (02961674) aligns with the details previously disclosed in the company’s corrigendum regarding the rectification of director appointment terms approved by the board on September 5, 2026.
Board Meeting Context
This administrative correction follows the board meeting held on September 5, 2026, where several key agenda items were approved. The board had previously approved:
- The rectification of appointment terms for Managing Director Pradipkumar Ratilal Navik and Whole-time Directors Shantilal Ishwarlal Patel and Rohan Pradipkumar Navik.
- The re-appointment of Mr. Dhavalkumar Shantilal Patel as Whole-time Director for a three-year term beginning September 22, 2027. This is subject to shareholder approval at the ensuing General Meeting.
- Approval of the Directors' Report and annexures for FY26.
- Appointment of Manish R. Patel as Secretarial Auditor for five years.
Mr. Dhaval S Patel has been on the board since September 22, 2017. His primary responsibility is overseeing the purchasing process, ensuring the company secures best quality raw materials at competitive prices by monitoring market trends and negotiating with suppliers. He is the son of Mr. Shantilal Patel, another Whole-Time Director of the company.
All these matters require shareholder approval at the upcoming 18th Annual General Meeting (AGM).
