Sarvesh S. Srivastava & Co. conducted a secretarial compliance review for Standard Surfactants Limited for FY 2025-26. The report identified two regulatory violations: (1) Board composition was not compliant with Regulation 17(1) of SEBI LODR, resulting in cumulative fines of Rs. 5,31,000 (March 2025), Rs. 3,59,900 (December 2024), and Rs. 45,000 (June 2025); (2) Nomination and Remuneration Committee composition was not compliant with Regulation 19(1), resulting in fines of Rs. 2,12,400 (March 2025), Rs. 1,48,680 (December 2024), and Rs. 18,000 (March 2025). The company stated it was seeking eligible candidates with expertise rather than filling vacancies merely for compliance. Management subsequently appointed an Independent Director on 10.04.2026 to rectify both violations. All other compliance areas including secretarial standards, policies, website maintenance, insider trading, and related party transactions were found satisfactory.
The company has resolved its board composition issues by appointing an Independent Director in April 2026, bringing it into compliance with SEBI requirements. Past non-compliance resulted in approximately Rs. 11.15 lakh in total fines from BSE, which investors should note as a historical governance concern now addressed.
