Dredging Corporation of India (DCI) has appointed Capt. S. Divakar as its new Managing Director & CEO effective March 25, 2026. He is an internal candidate who began his career at DCI in 1987 as a cadet under the All India Dredging Cadre and has spent 38 years with the company, rising from Cadet to Master of Dredger and then serving in senior onshore management roles. He currently also holds a directorship in Sethusamudram Corporation Limited. His appointment is initially as an Additional Director (Executive & Non-Independent), with shareholder approval to be sought at the next general meeting within three months, and he will serve until age 60 or further orders, whichever is earlier.
This is a smooth internal succession with no leadership vacuum, likely providing operational continuity and stability for shareholders. The appointment is procedurally routine and should not materially disrupt the stock in the short term.
