MIRC Electronics, the company behind the Onida brand, held a board meeting on May 20, 2025 that resulted in major leadership changes. Founder and Chairman & Managing Director Mr. Gulu L. Mirchandani stepped down from active executive roles due to age and health reasons after leading the company for 44 years; he will continue as Chairman Emeritus from September 1, 2025 subject to shareholder approval. Mr. Vijay J. Mansukhani, the co-founder, was elevated from Managing Director to Chairman & Managing Director effective May 21, 2025. Mr. Kaval G. Mirchandani (Gulu's son) was re-designated from Whole-time Director to Managing Director for a 3-year term from May 26, 2025, while another son, Mr. Sasha G. Mirchandani (founder of Kae Capital and co-founder of Mumbai Angels), was appointed as an Additional Non-Executive & Non-Independent Director. The board also approved the re-appointment of Independent Director Ms. Mohita Arora for 5 years and Whole-time Director Mr. Shirish Suvagia for 3 years, plus an amendment to the Articles of Association to formally create the Chairman Emeritus position.
Shareholders should see this as an orderly family-led succession with continuity at the top — Kaval as MD and Vijay as Chairman & MD both retain operating roles, while the founder's shift to an honorary Chairman Emeritus role preserves his guidance. Adding Sasha Mirchandani, a seasoned investor and entrepreneur, could strengthen strategic and capital-markets expertise on the board, though the Article amendment for the Chairman Emeritus role will need shareholder approval at the upcoming AGM.
