- PAYMENT OF COMMISSION TO THE NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY
Against Axis Mutual Fund, Nippon India Mutual Fund, PGIM India Mutual Fund
- Axis Mutual FundThe company seeks shareholders’ approval to pay commission of upto 1% of the net profits of the company to the non-executive directors and to pay Navin Paul by way of profit related commission or otherwise of an amount not exceeding Rs. 2.0 mn for his professional services for FY26, which will be in excess of 50% of aggregate commission to NEDs. The company must clarify the nature of these professional services and reclassify Navin Paul as Non-Executive Non-Independent Director, given this business relationship. The company has not defined a tenure for payment of commission and the resolution is effectively valid for perpetuity. We believe shareholders must get a chance to periodically approve such payments. Further, the company must consider capping the commission in absolute terms. We also expect the company to disclose the effective date of the proposed approval. We do not support the resolution.
- Nippon India Mutual FundNo absolute cap on proposed payment of commission.
- PGIM India Mutual FundNo absolute cap on the proposed commission. Board discretion to distribute the commission; perpetual approval; No justification for payment of commission to selected ID.
