She has been on the board of the company since 30 June 2020. She has attended all twelve board meetings held in FY25. There is limited disclosure on her profile and work experience. The company should have disclosed granular details of her educational background, previous work experience, in the absence of which we are unable to determine her suitability to be an Independent Director on the board of a listed company. Further, we raise concern that she has been on the board of Rajesh Global Solutions Limited, a group company, since May 2019. We consider her overall association with the group while computing her tenure. We do not support rotation of Independent Directors within the group if their aggregate tenure with the company or the group exceeds 10 years as we believe this is not in line with the spirit of the regulations. Ms. Asha Mehta will complete 10 years of association with the group in May 2029, while her proposed second term on the board would extend until June 2030. Therefore, we do not support the resolution. Further the company should have sought shareholder approval within three months of her reappointment to the board and before the expiry of her first term. We do not support the resolution."

- SBI Mutual FundAs per his current terms of appointment, we estimate his annual remuneration to be Rs. 186,816, excluding other perquisites. We believe that his remuneration is low for the size of the company and the complexity of their operations. He is a professional and we expect his remuneration to be benchmarked to market standards. We believe the Managing Director’s remuneration must be aligned to company performance. The company must articulate the reasons for overall low board compensation and low individual employee compensation levels in general. Further, the company must clarify if he is being paid remuneration from any other sources. Given this, we are unable to support his remuneration.

- 3) Reappoint B S D & Co. as statutory auditors for four years from the conclusion of the FY23 AGM till the conclusion of the FY27 AGM and fix their remuneration.
Against SBI Mutual Fund
- SBI Mutual FundIn FY22, B S D & Co. had replaced P. V. Ramana Reddy & Co. as statutory auditors and were appointed for a period of one year from the conclusion of the FY22 AGM till the conclusion of the FY23 AGM. We believe that the auditors should have been appointed for a five-year term in the FY22 AGM. The company has not made any disclosures on the proposed audit fees, which is a mandatory requirement under SEBI’s LODR 2015. Further, the proposed reappointment for four years is not in line with Section 139(1) of the Companies Act 2013, which states that auditors must be appointed for a period of five years. Therefore, we do not support their reappointment.
