Petronet LNG is seeking shareholder approval via postal ballot for two director appointments already made on January 16, 2026. The first resolution is to appoint Dr. Neeraj Mittal, IAS (DIN: 05216366), currently Secretary in the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, as Director and Chairman of the company. The second is to appoint Ms. Avantika Singh Aulakh, IAS (DIN: 07549438), as Nominee Director representing Gujarat Maritime Board and Government of Gujarat, nominated through GSPC under the Dahej LNG port terminal concession agreement. Both were initially appointed as Additional Directors and now require shareholder ratification within three months under SEBI LODR Regulation 17(1C). The e-voting window runs from March 6, 2026 to April 4, 2026, with results to be announced by April 7, 2026. M/s Ragini Chokshi & Co. has been appointed as scrutinizer for the process.
Routine governance action with no material business impact. Both appointees are senior government nominees (IAS officers), reflecting the strong government ownership and influence in Petronet LNG, and their appointments were already effective from January 16, 2026. Shareholders simply need to formally ratify these through e-voting.
