Abbott India Limited is seeking shareholder approval via postal ballot for the appointment of two directors. Mr. James Wenner, who is Vice President and Treasurer at Abbott Laboratories USA (parent company), is being appointed as a Non-Executive Director liable to retire by rotation. Mr. Neeraj Jain, a Chartered Accountant and Company Secretary with over 30 years of experience at Johnson & Johnson and Hindustan Unilever, is being appointed as an Independent Director for a term of 3 years. Mr. Neeraj Jain's appointment fills the vacancy created after Ms. Anisha Motwani's second term as Independent Director completed on April 24, 2026. Both appointments were initially made as Additional Directors in April 2026 and are now being regularized through this shareholder vote. Remote e-voting runs from May 18, 2026 to June 16, 2026.
The appointment of Mr. Wenner brings Abbott group's senior finance leadership to the India board, while Mr. Neeraj Jain's appointment strengthens the board with experienced independent oversight. Both appointments are routine governance matters and likely to be approved by shareholders.
