MRPL Fined ₹10.85 Lakh by BSE & NSE for Board Composition Non-Compliance
MRPL fined ₹10.85 lakh by BSE and NSE for non-compliance with board composition norms for the quarter ended December 31, 2025. The company has requested a waiver, citing that director nominations are made by the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas.
The fine amount is relatively small for a company of MRPL's size, and the issue relates to board composition, which the company is addressing through representation.
The company has been fined by stock exchanges for non-compliance, which is a negative development.

Consequently, MRPL has been levied a fine of ₹5,42,800 each by both BSE and NSE, totaling ₹10,85,600 (including GST @18%). The company has submitted a representation to the exchanges seeking a waiver of these fines. MRPL highlighted that as a Central Public Sector Enterprise (CPSE), the nomination of Directors to its Board is made by the administrative ministry, the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Government of India.
