Mr. Vikram Rao (DIN: 00017423) has resigned as a Non-Executive Independent Director of Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Limited, effective from the close of business hours on September 9, 2025. He cited personal reasons, specifically wanting to pursue new opportunities in business and leadership coaching. As a result, he will also step down as Chairperson of the Stakeholder Relationship Committee and as a Member of the Risk Management and Sustainability Committee. The Board noted his resignation at its meeting held on August 13, 2025 (4:30 PM to 6:50 PM) and recorded appreciation for his contributions. Mr. Rao confirmed there are no other material reasons for his departure and does not hold directorship in any other listed entity.
This is a routine independent director exit driven by personal career plans rather than any governance or performance concerns. The company will need to fill the independent director vacancy to maintain board composition requirements, but there is no negative signal for shareholders — no impact on operations, financials, or strategy is indicated.
