Ganesh Kumar as an Independent Director for a second term of three years (April 30, 2026 - April 29, 2029). Remote e-voting will be open from March 19, 2026, to April 17, 2026.

The announcement is a routine corporate action regarding the re-appointment of a director and does not contain any positive or negative financial or operational news.
IDFC First Bank Limited has issued a notice for a postal ballot to seek shareholder approval for the re-appointment of Mr. S. Ganesh Kumar as an Independent Director. The re-appointment is for a second term of three consecutive years, commencing from April 30, 2026, up to April 29, 2029. This is in accordance with the Companies Act, 2013, which limits an independent director's tenure to two consecutive terms, and the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, which caps the total tenure of a Non-Executive Director at eight years. The bank has engaged NSDL for remote e-voting, which will commence on March 19, 2026, and conclude on April 17, 2026. The results of the postal ballot are expected to be announced on or before April 21, 2026. Shareholders will vote on this matter through remote e-voting only.
