Biocon Limited Announces Postal Ballot for Key Corporate Actions
Biocon Limited is conducting a postal ballot for members to approve key corporate actions. This includes changes in remuneration for Ms. Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw and appointments of new CEO & MD, Mr. Shreehas Pradeep Tambe. It also covers preferential share issuance and appointments of several new directors. Remote e-voting is open from May 9 to June 7, 2026.
