- Appointment of Mr. Rajya Vardhan Kanoria (DIN: 00003792) as an Independent Director of the Company.
Against PPFAS Mutual Fund
- PPFAS Mutual FundSES has raised a concern that currently Mr. Kanoria serves as the Chairman of both, the Audit Committee and the Nomination & Remuneration Committee. While this is compliant under company law, it is preferable to have 2 different independent directors as the Chairman of these 2 committees No concern is being highlighted regarding his experience / time commitments, however, as a good governance practice, it is recommended to vote AGAINST this resolution
3 for1 against - Appointment of Mr. Devjit Sarkar (DIN: 10745850) as a Director of the Company.4 for0 against
- Appointment of Mr. Devjit Sarkar (DIN: 10745850) as Whole Time Director of the Company.
Against DSP Mutual Fund
- DSP Mutual FundThe company seeks to appoint Devjit Sarkar as Whole-time Director and Chief Executive Officer from 1 September 2024 for two years and fix his remuneration. The proposed remuneration (excluding ESOPs) for FY25 is estimated at Rs. 23.0 mn. We are unable to estimate his aggregate remuneration as the company has not disclosed the stock options to be granted to him during his tenure. There is no disclosure on the performance metrics that will govern his ESOP grants and performance pay. Although we support his appointment, we are unable to support his remuneration terms. Therefore, we do not support the resolution.

Against SBI Mutual Fund
- SBI Mutual FundRajesh Jejurikar, 59, is Executive Director and CEO (Auto and Farm Sector) of Mahindra & Mahindra Limited. He has attended 100% (5 out of 5) of the board meetings held in FY23. He retires by rotation and his reappointment is in line with all statutory requirements. SBIMF’s internal proxy voting guidelines do not allow us to vote in favour of promoter directors’ appointment/re-appointment if the board is not 50% independent both in number and spirit irrespective of the chairman of the board being an independent director. This is in line with the Kotak committee recommendations. We observe that there are 8 Board of Directors (BODs), out of which 4 are classified as independent directors and out of which 1 ID is long tenured, due to long association with the group company. Hence, the effective independence is assessed at 38% on SBI MFs framework. We wish to clarify that we do not have any doubt about the competency of the directors. Our only concern is <50% independence on the board. Hence, we do not support the resolution.
