The company informed the exchange that shareholders approved two appointments at its 36th Annual General Meeting.

What was approved

• Mr. R V Ramanuja Bharathi (DIN 08553270) as a Non-Executive Independent Director, for a term of 5 consecutive years, effective from August 11, 2026.
• Mr. T. Murugan, Practicing Company Secretary, as the Secretarial Auditors of the Company for FY 2026-27.

Profile of the new Independent Director

• The update describes him as an advocate in active practice with experience in legal strategy, litigation management, dispute resolution, constitutional matters, statutory compliance and corporate law.
• His appointment was regularized at the AGM, and he shall not be liable to retire by rotation.
• He is not related to any existing Director or Key Managerial Personnel of the company.
• The company affirmed that he is not debarred from holding the office of Director by virtue of any SEBI order or any other authority.

About the Secretarial Auditor

• Mr. T. Murugan, Practicing Company Secretary, was approved as the Secretarial Auditors of the Company for FY 2026-27.
• He is also the scrutinizer, and the e-voting results were received from him and are separately reported to the exchange.

How these appointments work

• An Independent Director is a board member who is not part of the company's management or promoter group, and Indian companies are required to have a certain proportion of such directors on the board. This appointment is for a fixed term of 5 years.
• A Secretarial Auditor is an external practising company secretary who examines whether the company has complied with company law and securities regulations for the year. The appointment here covers FY 2026-27.
• Both were placed before shareholders at the AGM and were approved there, with the voting results received from the scrutinizer and reported separately to the exchange.

What a reader can take away

• This is a governance and board-composition update rather than a business or financial one; the update does not deal with earnings, orders or operations.
• The Independent Director joins for a defined 5-year term, does not retire by rotation, and has no stated relationship with existing directors or key managerial personnel.
