In a move aimed at strengthening governance credentials, Uniinfo Telecom Services Limited has appointed Manojkumar Bhagirathprasad Rawat as an Independent Director for a five-year term, with effect from 18 July 2026 to 17 July 2031, subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming AGM. The Board action follows a recommendation from the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, signaling a deliberate step to bolster oversight and strategic governance at the company.
Rawat, a B.Sc. in Mathematics and a retired banker, brings three decades of experience in banking and finance to the table. He previously served with State Bank of India as a Bank Officer and is described by the company as possessing an ethical approach and a strong regulatory understanding—attributes it says are well-suited to the role of an Independent Director and to advising on finance and banking matters.
The appointment is disclosed as part of a formal process, with the board noting that Rawat meets the independence criteria under applicable corporate frameworks and is not related to any director or KMP of Uniinfo. His inclusion is presented as a governance-enhancing move, reinforcing the board’s capacity to provide independent oversight as the company charts its strategic path over the next five years.
