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.

- Axis Mutual FundThe company seeks to support its subsidiaries and joint ventures for their principal business activities by means of issuing financial guarantees and offering securities for repayment of the financial assistance or facilities availed by subsidiaries and joint ventures. In the FY20 AGM, shareholders had approved a limit of Rs. 10.0 bn under Section 186 of the Companies Act, 2013. As per the FY24 annual report, the company had outstanding guarantees of Rs. 4.8 bn as of 31 March 2024. We note that during FY24, the company made initial investments and issued corporate guarantees aggregating to Rs. 9.3 bn to its wholly owned subsidiaries. While the company has primarily supported wholly owned subsidiaries in the past, this is an enabling approval, and it allows the company to provide financial support to promoter entities and companies with common directorships. We believe the company must disclose granular details including names of these companies, the nature and size of their operations and terms of support, to justify the transaction limit sought and to enable shareholders to make an informed decision.
