Quess Corp's board approved a leadership transition: Mr. Lohit Bhatia (current CEO) will be re-designated as Whole-time Director, Executive Director and Group CEO for 3 years starting June 1, 2026, subject to shareholder approval. Mr. Guruprasad Srinivasan, the current Executive Director, will step down on May 31, 2026 and continue as a strategic advisor to management. Separately, the board approved a new employee stock plan — QSOP 2026 — covering up to 52.5 lakh performance-based RSUs (3.52% of share capital), with about 18.23 lakh re-deployed from the existing QSOP 2020. Net additional dilution is capped at 2.3% of share capital, and vesting is linked to Revenue, EBITDA and Operating Cash Flow targets. The plan and a new irrevocable Employees Welfare Trust require shareholder approval via postal ballot.
Planned succession with continuity — internal incumbent Bhatia (15+ years at Quess) takes over as ED and Group CEO while outgoing ED Srinivasan stays on as an advisor. The performance-linked ESOP aligns management with shareholders but introduces up to 2.3% additional share dilution.
