At an extraordinary general meeting held via video conference, the company approved the appointment of Gaurav Kumar Tripathi as Director and Whole-Time Director for a three-year term from June 5, 2026 to June 4, 2029. The move signals a deliberate broadening of executive leadership as the group advances its strategic agenda, even as governance and structural shifts unfold in the background.
Alongside Tripathi, the board green-lit appointments across the governance layer: Anubhav Agarwal as Non-Executive Non-Independent Director; Piyush Bichhoriya as Non-Executive Non-Independent Director; and Sanmitra Trivedi and Jalpa Anand Lavingia as Independent Directors for a first term of five years. The meeting also approved alterations to the Memorandum of Association and a shift of the registered office from Gujarat to Haryana, subject to regulatory clearance, as well as a change in the company’s name to Agastya Energy and Infrastructure Limited pending regulatory approval. The package reflects a broader push to refresh governance while aligning the company with its evolving strategic trajectory.
