Backgrounds disclosed

Ms. Ruma Narayan Chowdhury has experience in financial planning and budgeting, MIS and management reporting, operational management and production workflow management. She has been associated with Kolkata TV since 2011 as HOD & Finance Coordinator, and earlier with Mahuaa Khabar, Akash Bangla, 24 Ghanta and ETV Bangla.

Mr. Nikhil Pujari is a management professional with a master's degree in marketing and experience in the FMCG industry.
How to read this
The company has refilled the Company Secretary & Compliance Officer position that fell vacant on 11 September 2026, so the statutory compliance role is once again occupied. The earlier resignation was stated to be on health grounds and had already been intimated to BSE by letter dated 13 August 2026.
The move of Mr. Pujari to an executive (Whole-time Director) role signals a more hands-on board involvement in operations, but it still needs shareholder approval before it takes full effect.
No financial terms, remuneration figures or business impact numbers accompany these changes. The meeting concluded at 4:10 P.M.
