On the board front, Managing Director Saurabh Dhanorkar will step down effective October 25, 2025, upon attaining age 70, and will be succeeded by Udipt Agarwal (currently CCO at Alkyl Amines Chemicals, with prior stints at Cargill and BASF) for a five-year term starting November 1, 2025. Director-Technical Saumya Chakrabarti also resigned for personal reasons (effective August 31, 2025), while Independent Director Rajesh Rathi quit citing professional commitments (effective August 2, 2025). Rambabu Sanka (current President-Technical) was appointed as Whole-time Director cum Director-Technical for five years.

Likely market impact

The MD transition appears orderly and well-planned, with an experienced external professional taking over — generally positive for governance, though the stock may react to the underlying weakness in core operations (revenue and core PBT both declined YoY excluding the one-time land gain).
