Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Cochin Shipyard received fines of Rs 9.66 lakh each from BSE and NSE for not having enough Independent Directors on its board during Q1 FY27, breaching SEBI listing rules. Total fine about Rs 19.33 lakh. The company says director appointments are controlled by the Government, which has now appointed Dr Vani Ahluwalia as a new Independent Director. Audit and remuneration committees have been reconstituted. Company will apply for waiver of fines. No other financial impact.
Minor penalty with limited financial impact. Company is seeking waiver and has already fixed the board composition issue.
