Ganga Papers India Ltd has announced three board changes effective March 20, 2026. Mr. Ramesh Kumar Chaudhary, who is related to the promoter (father of Promoter Mr. Amit Chaudhary), stepped down as Chairperson due to pre-occupation but will continue as a Non-Executive & Non-Independent Director. Mr. Manish Kumar (DIN: 10379153), a Non-Executive & Non-Independent Non-Promoter Director aged 46 with 19 years of marketing experience, has been appointed as the new Chairperson. Separately, Independent Director Mr. Ratan Kumar Singh (DIN: 07131585) resigned citing health reasons and confirmed there are no other material reasons for his departure. The company is a small-cap entity listed on BSE under scrip code 531813.
The chairmanship has moved from a promoter-family member to an independent non-promoter director, which could be viewed positively on the governance front. However, the loss of an independent director weakens the board's independence, and shareholders should watch for timely appointment of a replacement independent director to comply with SEBI norms.
