Mcnally Bharat Appoints Pradip Kumar Bishnoi as Non-Executive Chairman
Mcnally Bharat Engineering has appointed Mr. Pradip Kumar Bishnoi as Non-Executive Chairman, effective August 24, 2026. He will serve until January 5, 2030. Mr. Bishnoi brings over 45 years of experience in various industries and holds an MBA from IIM Ahmedabad.
A change in the leadership position of Chairman can have a medium-term impact on the company's strategic direction and governance. Mr. Bishnoi's extensive experience suggests potential for strategic influence.
The appointment of a new Non-Executive Chairman is a standard corporate governance change and does not inherently signal a positive or negative shift in the company's performance or outlook. The announcement is factual and lacks any performance-related data.
Mcnally Bharat Engineering Company Limited announced the appointment of Mr. Pradip Kumar Bishnoi as the Non-Executive Chairman of the Company and its Board of Directors, effective 24th August 2026. This appointment was approved by the Board through a resolution passed by circulation on the same date.
Mr. Bishnoi, who is currently an Independent Director on the Board, will hold the position of Non-Executive Chairman until 5th January 2030, which is the residual tenure of his appointment as an Independent Director, or until otherwise determined by the Board, whichever is earlier. He is not related to any other Director or Key Managerial Personnel of the Company.
Mr. Pradip Kumar Bishnoi is a Bachelor in Petroleum Engineering and holds a Masters in Business Management from IIM, Ahmedabad. He has also completed a Management Programme at Oxford, UK, and a Programme on Utility Regulators at Florida University, USA. With over 45 years of experience in sectors such as steel, natural gas, and industrial packaging, he has previously served as the CMD of Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Limited and MD of Balmer Lawrie & Co. Limited. He is also a former member of the Petroleum & Natural Gas Regulatory Board and has received a Gold Medal from the Prime Minister for development work in 2008.

This disclosure is made in compliance with Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, and the information is also available on the company's website.
