Hindustan Unilever's shareholders have approved the appointment of Ms. Priya Nair as the company's Managing Director & CEO through a postal ballot, with 99.88% of votes cast in favor out of 201.03 crore valid shares. Only 0.12% (around 24 lakh shares) voted against the resolution, reflecting overwhelming investor support. Ms. Nair, a 30-year Unilever veteran who most recently led the €13 billion Beauty & Wellbeing portfolio globally, will serve a 5-year term from 1st August 2025 to 31st July 2030. Her appointment remains subject to Central Government approval since she is a non-resident. Total annual remuneration at target is around ₹27.3 crore, including fixed pay, bonus, and share grants linked to Unilever and HUL performance plans.
The near-unanimous shareholder approval removes a key governance overhang and formally confirms Ms. Priya Nair's leadership transition at HUL, which should be seen as positive for continuity. Investors will now watch for Central Government clearance and her early strategic priorities for the Indian business.
