What the update says
The Board of Directors, at its meeting held on 4th November, 2026, noted and approved two connected changes in the Company Secretary and Compliance Officer position.
- Ms. Urvi Upadhyay has confirmed her joining and assumed office as the Company Secretary & Compliance Officer of the company with effect from 2nd November, 2026.
- Her appointment had already been approved by the Board at its meeting held on 6th August, 2026, with her joining scheduled on or before 6th November, 2026.
- Ms. Sarika More has resigned as the Interim Company Secretary and Compliance Officer and Key Managerial Personnel, with effect from the close of business hours on 30th October, 2026.
- A copy of her resignation letter, including the reason for resignation, is attached to the update.
- The Board meeting commenced at 3.05 pm and concluded at 4.22 p.m.
Why the interim arrangement ended
In her letter dated 27th October, 2026, Ms. Sarika More states that she was appointed to the position with effect from 7th August, 2026 on an interim basis, until the joining of the regular Company Secretary and Compliance Officer. She cites the scheduled joining of Ms. Urvi Upadhyay with effect from 2nd November, 2026 as the reason for tendering her resignation, and requests the company to file the necessary e-forms with the Registrar of Companies and intimate the stock exchanges.
How to read it
This is a senior compliance and secretarial role rather than an operational or revenue-driving one. The two changes read as a planned handover: the interim officer steps down at the close of business on 30th October, 2026 and the regular appointee takes charge from 2nd November, 2026, leaving the position filled without a gap. The reason recorded in the resignation letter is the arrival of the regular appointee, not any disagreement.
The update gives no financial figures, so there is no quantitative impact to assess; the relevance to investors is limited to governance continuity in a Key Managerial Personnel post.
