The Great Eastern Shipping Company has issued a Postal Ballot notice seeking shareholder approval to re-appoint Mrs. Bhavna Doshi (DIN: 00400508) as an Independent Director for a second term from May 12, 2026 to October 25, 2030. Her current first term expires on May 11, 2026, and the re-appointment will complete her maximum permissible 10-year tenure with the Great Eastern group. A separate special resolution is being sought because she will turn 75 in June 2028, which requires shareholder approval under SEBI's Regulation 17(1A). The remote e-voting window runs from April 1, 2026 to April 30, 2026, with the cut-off date for eligibility set as March 25, 2026 and results to be announced by May 3, 2026. Mrs. Doshi is a former KPMG partner with over 30 years of experience in taxation, accounting, and corporate governance, and attended 100% of board and committee meetings in FY25-26.
This is a routine governance item with no direct impact on the stock price or business operations. Shareholders will vote to retain an experienced independent director with strong attendance and relevant expertise in audit, taxation, and risk management.
