DCM Shriram Fine Chemicals Limited (DSFCL) has received notices from BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited, each imposing a fine of ₹68,440 (including 18% GST). These fines are a result of technical non-compliance with Regulation 17(1A) of the SEBI Listing Regulations for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.
The non-compliance pertains to a delay in obtaining prior shareholder approval for the appointment/continuation of Non-Executive Director, Mr. Sunil Behari Mathur, who has crossed the age of 75 years. The company attributes this omission to time constraints related to implementing a Scheme of Arrangement and fulfilling listing requirements.
DSFCL has initiated the process to obtain shareholder approval through Postal Ballot, which is expected to be completed within three months from the date of appointment. The company will submit the Special Resolution and Explanatory Statement upon the conclusion of the Postal Ballot process and declaration of voting results on Friday, May 29, 2026. The company has clarified that the fine is the only material impact on its financial or operational activities.
