Dredging Corporation of India Limited is strengthening its governance framework with the appointment of Krishna Das as an Independent Non-Executive Director, joining the board as an Additional Director. The move underscores the company’s commitment to independent oversight as it pursues its strategic agenda and governance reforms.
Krishna Das’s appointment is effective from March 9, 2026. The arrangement will be valid up to the date of the next General Meeting, at which shareholders will be asked to approve her regular appointment for a three-year term as an Independent Non-Executive Director from the effective date of her appointment.
A brief profile of Krishna Das has been intimated earlier, and the company notes that the appointment is subject to the usual corporate approvals and formalities. The development signals DCI’s emphasis on bringing additional independent perspective to its board as it navigates its operational and strategic priorities.
