On March 18, 2026, the Board of Goel Construction Company approved three key items. Mr. Sushil Kumar Wali (DIN: 00044890), a Chemical Engineer and former Whole-Time Director of JK Lakshmi Cement Ltd with 45+ years of experience, was appointed as an Additional Independent Director for a 3-year term (March 18, 2026 to March 17, 2029), subject to shareholder approval. Simultaneously, Mr. Chaman Lal (DIN: 10811352) resigned as Non-Executive Independent Director, citing preoccupation and other work commitments, with no other material reasons disclosed. The Board also appointed M/s Gaurav G & Associates, a peer-reviewed Practicing Company Secretary firm, as the Secretarial Auditor for FY 2025-26.
This is a routine board refresh with one independent director replacing another and a new secretarial auditor being onboarded. No red flags — the resignation was for personal reasons and the incoming director brings strong industry and governance experience. Likely neutral to slightly positive for governance perception.
