Summary of Proposed Resolution and Implications
The single resolution proposes the appointment of Mr. Vivek Paul (DIN: 11979027) as a Non-Executive Nominee Director, representing Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). His appointment was initially approved by the company's Board of Directors on October 6, 2026, based on a recommendation from LIC and the Nomination & Remuneration Committee. This shareholder approval is mandated by Regulation 17(1C) of the SEBI LODR Regulations, which requires ratification of a director's appointment at the next general meeting or within three months, whichever is earlier. Mr. Paul will hold office until the date of the next Annual General Meeting and will be entitled to receive sitting fees for board and committee meetings. A commission may also be paid to LIC, subject to board approval and statutory limits.
