The board of Hitachi Energy India accepted the resignation of Mr. Achim Michael Braun from the position of Chairman and Non-Executive Non-Independent Director, effective from close of business hours on August 20, 2025. Mr. Ismo Antero Haka, an existing Non-Executive and Non-Independent Director, was appointed as the new Chairman in his place. The board also appointed Mr. Jan Niklas Persson as an Additional Director in the capacity of Non-Executive and Non-Independent Director, subject to shareholder approval through a postal ballot. Mr. Persson is an Executive Vice President at Hitachi Energy's Grid Integration Business Unit and has been with the group since 1997. The board further reconstituted several committees to reflect the new composition.
This is a routine internal succession within the Hitachi Energy group, with the new Chairman being a current board member and the new director being a senior group executive. The changes are not expected to have a material impact on the company's operations or strategy, and should be viewed as neutral for shareholders pending approval of Mr. Persson's appointment.
