An independent director has no business or family tie to the company, its promoters or its managers beyond the seat. Listed boards counts the boards of listed companies the director sits on, this one included, and "as independent" how many of those seats are independent ones. Committee seats are audit and stakeholder committee seats across those companies. Months as independent is filed for independent directors only, whose terms the rules cap. Disqualified is the company's own mark that a director may not serve under company law.

  • Approval of ‘Aarti Pharma Performance Stock Option Plan 2023’
    Against Axis Mutual Fund, HDFC Mutual Fund, HSBC Mutual Fund, Motilal Oswal Mutual Fund
    • Axis Mutual FundPSOP 2023 has a pool size of 700,000 resulting in an overall dilution of ~0.8% on the expanded capital base. The exercise price of options will be determined by the NRC and can be as low as face value (Rs. 5.0) representing a discount of ~98.7% on the expanded capital base. Stock options are ‘pay at risk’ options that employees accept at the time of grant, which is protected if the ESOPs are issued at significant discount. Issuance of stock options at a significant discount to market price does not align the interests of shareholders with those of employees unless the options vest based on clear performance based parameters. In case of PSOP 2023, the vesting is primarily linked to time based condition and NRC has the discretion to determine any additional performance conditions. Since vesting under PSOP 2023 is not mandatorily linked to performance criteria, we are unable to support the resolution.
    • HDFC Mutual FundThere is lack of disclosure/clarity on the pricing formula/exercise price at which the ESOP will be granted
    • HSBC Mutual FundA vote AGAINST this resolution is warranted because:The scheme permits stock options to be issued with an exercise price at a discount to the current market price.The exact performance targets for vesting have not been disclosed.
    • Motilal Oswal Mutual FundExercise price Not disclosed. No absolute cap on maximum options per employee
