Against Axis Mutual Fund, Mirae Asset Mutual Fund
- Axis Mutual FundThe company received approval for payment of commission upto 1% of net profits capped at Rs. 0.3 mn per annum per Non-Executive Director at the FY22 AGM. In FY24, the company paid Rs. 2.4 mn as aggregate commission to non-executive directors, which is 0.06% of standalone PBT. The company now seeks to revise commission (in addition to sitting fees) from Rs. 0.3 mn to Rs. 0.5 mn per director per annum, not exceeding 1% of net profits of the company, to its non-executive directors from 1 April 2024. The proposed commission to non-executive directors is reasonable. However, the company has not defined a tenure for payment of commission and the resolution is effectively valid for perpetuity. We believe shareholders must get an opportunity to periodically approve such payments and therefore do not support the resolution.
- Mirae Asset Mutual FundAs per advisory recommendation (Passive holding)
