Postal ballot result: what has been approved

• The members of the company have approved the appointment of Mr. Sandeep Gokhale as an Independent Director.
• The approval is for a first term of five consecutive years, with effect from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2031.
• The decision was taken through a Special Resolution, and the company states this update is based on the Scrutiniser's Report on voting results.

What the terms mean in plain language

An Independent Director is a board member who is not part of the company's executive management and is expected to bring an outside, objective view to board decisions. A first term of five consecutive years means this is the initial five-year stint for Mr. Gokhale in this role at the company.

A Special Resolution is a resolution that needs a higher level of shareholder approval than an ordinary resolution. What matters here is that the appointment has moved from being a proposal in the notice to being approved by the members, and the company has now confirmed the outcome to the stock exchanges.

Points a retail investor may note

• This is a board and governance-related update, not an announcement about the company's business, orders, earnings or finances.
• The document records the approval of the appointment and the tenure; it does not carry any financial figures, so there is no monetary number to evaluate here.
• The appointment carries a defined start and end date, so the tenure is fixed for the first term of five consecutive years.

How this can be viewed

Changes in board composition are generally watched for their effect on governance and decision-making. The update confirms a shareholder-approved appointment of an Independent Director. It does not, by itself, indicate any change in the company's operations or financial performance.
