AI summary

The Board of Directors of Century Enka Limited approved multiple items at their meeting on May 21, 2026. Key resolutions include: (1) Appointment of M/s. Singhi & Co., Chartered Accountants as Statutory Auditors for a 5-year term (FY2026-27 to FY2030-31), subject to shareholder approval at the 60th AGM — replacing M/s. Khimji Kunverji & Co. LLP; (2) Redesignation of Mr. Suresh Sodani as Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer (MD & CEO) with no change in existing terms; (3) Approval of audited standalone and consolidated financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 2026 — standalone net profit after tax grew to Rs 10,169 Lacs vs Rs 6,710 Lacs in FY25, driven by higher revenue of Rs 1,70,541 Lacs (down from Rs 2,00,169 Lacs in prior year); and (4) Recommendation of dividend at 110% (Rs 11 per equity share of Rs 10 each), up from Rs 10 in the previous year. The auditors issued an unmodified opinion with one emphasis of matter relating to an ongoing excise duty dispute (originally Rs 22,927 Lacs demand, re-determined to Rs 730 Lacs, pending before Supreme Court).

Likely market impact

The appointment of Singhi & Co. as the new statutory auditor and the redesignation of Suresh Sodani as MD & CEO signal continuity in leadership and governance. The strong 51% YoY growth in net profit and increased dividend are positive signals for shareholders.
