Cyient Shareholders Approve Buyback of ₹720 Crore Equity and Re-appoint Mr. Krishna Bodanapu
Cyient Limited shareholders approved a buyback of equity shares worth ₹720 crore at ₹1,125 per share. Additionally, Mr. Krishna Bodanapu was re-appointed as Executive Vice-Chairman and Managing Director for three years, with a salary range of ₹20-30 lakh per month and perquisites up to ₹50 lakh annually.
The share buyback directly impacts the company's capital structure and shareholder returns. The re-appointment of a key executive provides management stability and continuity, both of which are significant strategic decisions for the company.
The positive sentiment stems from the overwhelming approval of significant corporate actions, including a substantial share buyback and the re-appointment of a key executive, indicating strong shareholder confidence.
Cyient Limited has announced the successful outcome of its postal ballot process, conducted via remote e-voting, which concluded on June 10, 2026. The company's members have approved two key resolutions with the requisite majority.
The first resolution, passed as a special resolution, greenlights the buyback of equity shares up to ₹720 crore (approximately $86 million USD). The buyback will involve up to 64,00,000 equity shares at a price of ₹1,125 per share. This represents 5.76% of the company's existing paid-up equity share capital and is structured to be executed through the tender offer route on Indian stock exchanges. The buyback offer size excludes transaction costs and taxes.
The second resolution, an ordinary resolution, pertains to the re-appointment of Mr. Krishna Bodanapu as Executive Vice-Chairman and Managing Director for a period of three years, from April 3, 2026, to April 3, 2029. His remuneration package includes a monthly salary ranging from ₹20,00,000 to ₹30,00,000, with potential for commission up to 2.5% of profits based on performance and long-term value generation. Perquisites are capped at ₹50,00,000 annually.
The postal ballot notice was initially sent to shareholders on May 11, 2026, with the remote e-voting period commencing on May 12, 2026, and concluding on June 10, 2026. The cut-off date for determining eligible shareholders was May 8, 2026.
