CDSL e-Voting System – For Remote e-voting-Postal Ballot

THE INTRUCTIONS OF SHAREHOLDERS FOR REMOTE E-VOTING ARE AS UNDER:

  • (i) The voting period begins on 9.00 a.m. IST on Thursday, December 30, 2021 and ends at 5.00p.m. IST on Friday, January 28, 2022. During this period, the Members holding equity shares either inphysical form or in dematerialized form, as on the cut-off date, i.e. Friday, December 17, 2021, may cast their vote by remote e-voting. The e-voting module shall be disabled by CDSL for voting thereafter.

Currently, there are multiple e-voting service providers (ESPs) providing e-voting facility to listed entities in India. This necessitates registration on various ESPs and maintenance of multiple user IDs and passwords by the shareholders.

In order to increase the efficiency of the voting process, pursuant to a public consultation, it has been decided to enable e-voting to all the demat account holders , by way of a single login credential, through their demat accounts/ websites of Depositories/ Depository Participants . Demat account holders would be able to cast their vote without having to register again with the ESPs, thereby, not only facilitating seamless authentication but also enhancing ease and convenience of participating in e-voting process.

(iv) In terms of SEBI circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/CMD/CIR/P/2020/242 dated December 9, 2020 on e-Voting facility provided by Listed Companies, Individual shareholders holding securities in demat mode are allowed to vote through their demat account maintained with Depositories and Depository Participants.
