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.

- Bank of India Mutual FundMs. Pallavi Shroff, 67, is Managing Partner and Head of Dispute Management at Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas & Co. She attended seven out of eight (88%) board meetings held in FY23. Pallavi Shroff serves on the board of six listed companies (including Asian Paints). Given their full-time responsibilities, regulations allow whole-time directors of listed companies to be independent directors in a maximum of three listed companies. We believe that, as Managing Partner, her responsibilities are equivalent to a whole-time directorship. Therefore, her high number of directorships on listed companies is not in keeping with the spirit of the regulation. Hence, we do not support the resolution.
