Cyient Appoints P.R. Ramesh and Madan Pillutla as Independent Directors for 3-Year Term
Board appointments, especially of independent directors with significant experience, can have a moderate impact on a company's strategic direction, governance, and overall credibility, but do not directly affect immediate financial performance.
The appointment of two highly experienced professionals, Mr. P.R. Ramesh (former Chairman of Deloitte India) and Mr. Madan Pillutla (Dean & Professor at Indian School of Business), as Independent Directors is expected to strengthen the company's board, enhance governance, and bring diverse expertise.

Ramesh and Mr. Madan Pillutla as Independent Directors of the company. * The appointments are for a term of 3 years, effective from 18 August 2025. * These appointments are subject to the approval of shareholders. * Mr. P.R. Ramesh, a Fellow Member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), is the former Chairman of Deloitte India and a former member of the Deloitte Global Board, bringing over 40 years of professional experience. * Mr. Madan Pillutla previously served for twenty-two years on the faculty of the London Business School, holding various leadership positions including Deputy Dean of Faculty. He is currently the Dean & Professor of Organizational Behaviour at the Indian School of Business. * Cyient Limited confirmed that both appointed directors are not debarred from holding office by any SEBI order or other authority, and are not related to any existing Directors, Key Managerial Personnel, or Promoters of the Company.
