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.

    • Sundaram Mutual FundP.V. Abinav Ramasubramaniam Raja, 29, is the promoter and Managing Director of Ramco Industries Ltd, a promoter group company. He has been on the board of this company since 11 February 2017. He attended all four board meetings held in FY23. While his reappointment is in line with statutory requirements, we do not support his reappointment: we believe at the age of 29, he does not have the requisite experience to be on the board of a listed company.
