Indrayani Biotech informed the exchanges that its Board, at a meeting held on November 02, 2026, approved two changes on the compliance side: the appointment of a new Secretarial Auditor and the resignation of its Company Secretary and Compliance Officer.

Secretarial Auditor appointed

• The Board approved the appointment of Ms. Nattery Srinivasan Poornima, Company Secretary in Practice (CP No.: 24073 / Membership No.: F10786), as the Secretarial Auditor of the Company for the Financial Year 2025-26.
• The appointment is effective from November 02, 2026, to conduct the secretarial audit for that financial year.
• It fills the casual vacancy created by the resignation of the previous Secretarial Auditor, Mr. K. Ravichandran, who resigned on August 06, 2026.
• The update states she is not related to any Director or KMP of the Company.

Who the new Secretarial Auditor is

The update describes CS N. S. Poornima as a corporate strategist, transaction advisor and governance professional with expertise in M&A, foreign investments, business structuring, regulatory advisory and board governance. Her stated areas of knowledge include Corporate Laws, Securities Laws, FEMA, the Insolvency & Bankruptcy Code, Banking Regulations, Intellectual Property Rights and governance frameworks. She also serves as an Independent Director on the board of a listed company and is a Member of the Board of Studies, Periyar University.

Company Secretary and Compliance Officer resigns

• The Board accepted the resignation of Mr. C.S. Shanmuga Sundar (Membership No.: A58375) from the position of Company Secretary and Compliance Officer.
• His resignation letter was submitted on 17th September, 2026 and, after the required 45-day notice period as per Company policy, the resignation takes effect from the close of business hours on November 02, 2026.
• The annexure gives the reason as resignation due to personal reasons. The enclosed resignation letter refers to health conditions, with the doctor advising him to avoid travel and strain and to rest for three to six months.

How to read the two changes

A Secretarial Auditor independently checks whether a company's secretarial records and compliance with company law and SEBI rules are in order; the person appointed here will carry out that audit for the Financial Year 2025-26. The Company Secretary is a Key Managerial Personnel and, as Compliance Officer, is the designated point of contact for stock-exchange compliance, so this is a change in a specifically designated compliance role.

Both items were disclosed under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, along with the details called for by the SEBI circular dated July 13, 2023, including the reason for each change and the relationship disclosure for the incoming auditor.
