IRFC has received fines of Rs. 9,55,800 each from BSE and NSE for non-compliance with SEBI Listing Regulations. The violations relate to Regulations 17(1), 18(1), and 19(1)/19(2) concerning the composition of the Board, Audit Committee, and Nomination and Remuneration Committee for the quarter ending March 31, 2026. The company states it has no control over Director appointments as this power rests with the President of India through the Ministry of Railways. IRFC has previously requested appointment of independent directors (including a Women Independent Director) from the Ministry. The exchanges have previously waived similar fines for the period March 2021 to December 2025. The company has now requested waiver of these latest fines under the SEBI Standard Operating Procedure Circular.
The company claims no direct financial or operational impact, as the fine amount is relatively small. However, this highlights an ongoing governance issue where IRFC's Board composition does not meet SEBI requirements due to delayed appointment of independent directors. Shareholders should watch whether the Ministry of Railways acts on the appointment requests and if exchanges grant the waiver.
