What was decided

The Board of Directors met on Tuesday, September 29, 2026 and approved the appointment of three Additional Directors, all effective September 29, 2026, each holding office till the conclusion of the ensuing Annual General Meeting.

The appointees

• Samrat Vardhan Dutta — Additional Director in the capacity of Non-Executive Director. Described as an entrepreneur and commercial operator with knowledge in D2C, marketing, consumer behaviour, sales and technology; holds a bachelor's degree in business administration from Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management, Dubai.
• Sarthak Goyal — Additional Director in the capacity of Executive Director, Promoter category.

How to read it

An Additional Director can be appointed by the Board between general meetings, but the appointment lapses at the next AGM unless shareholders approve continuation. So shareholders will get a vote on all three at the ensuing AGM.

One appointment is from the Promoter category in an executive role, which brings promoter representation into day-to-day management. The Independent Director appointment supports board independence requirements.

Each appointment was made on the recommendation of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, and the update states that none of the three is debarred from holding the office of director by any order of SEBI or any other authority. Relationships between directors are stated as not applicable in each case.

Meeting timing

The meeting commenced at 05:00 P.M. and concluded at 05:30 P.M.
