ITEM NO: 2 TO 5:
The Members of the Company has approved the terms of appointment and remuneration of Executive Directors forming part of promoter and promoter group viz.
- Mr. Sanjay Lalbhai (Chairman), for a term up to 31st March, 2027 (approved by special resolution passed through postal ballot on 30th April, 2022), and
- Mr. Punit Lalbhai (Vice Chairman) and Mr. Kulin Lalbhai (Vice Chairman) for a term up to 31st July, 2027 (approved by special resolutions passed through postal ballot on 2nd July, 2022).
As the Members are aware that a Scheme of arrangement involving transfer and vesting of Advanced Materials Undertaking of the Company into its wholly owned subsidiary company viz. Arvind Advanced Materials Limited, has been sanctioned by National Company Law Tribunal vide order dated 7th August, 2025. The Scheme has been made effective from 1st September, 2025. Accordingly, the Advanced Materials Undertaking, along with the profits generated from the Appointed Date under the Scheme i.e. 1st April 2024, stand transferred to the wholly owned subsidiary company. As a result, the standalone financial statements of the Company for FY 2025- 26 and onwards will no longer include the profitability of the said Undertaking. This restructuring will have the effect of reducing the standalone net profits of the Company from FY 2025-26 onwards.
Further as per Regulation 17(6)(e) of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (Listing Regulations), the approval of the members by way of special resolution is required for payment of fees or compensation to executive directors who are promoters or members of promoter group, if:
- (i) the annual remuneration payable to such executive director exceeds Rs. 5 Crore or 2.5% of the Net Profits of the listed entity (calculated as per Section 198 of the Companies Act 2013), whichever is higher; or
- (ii) where there is more than one such director, the aggregate annual remuneration to such directors exceeds 5% of the Net Profits of the listed entity (calculated as per Section 198 of the Companies Act 2013)
Accordingly, although there is no change in the terms and conditions of remuneration of the aforesaid directors as earlier approved by the members (except that the perquisites amount payable to the aforesaid directors shall not exceed Rs. 2.5 Crores per annum), the annual remuneration payable to Mr. Sanjay Lalbhai, Mr. Punit Lalbhai and Mr. Kulin Lalbhai is likely to exceed limits prescribed under Regulation 17(6)(e) of Listing Regulations (as the proposed restructuring will have the effect of reducing the standalone net profits of the Company from FY 2025-26 onwards). Therefore, the approval of the Members is sought to continue payment of remuneration to aforesaid directors.
Mr. Sanjay Lalbhai, as Chairman of the Board, is actively involved in the overall strategic decisionmaking of the Company. Mr. Punit Lalbhai, Vice Chairman oversees the Textiles and Advanced Materials businesses, providing leadership and direction in these core areas. Mr. Kulin Lalbhai, Vice Chairman is responsible for the Retail business and also oversees the Group's Corporate Affairs function.
The terms of remuneration payable to the directors forming part of promoter / promoter group as already approved by the members along with the presently proposed ceiling on Perquisites and Allowances up to ₹2.50 crores per annum, are as under::
