Nestlé India is seeking shareholder approval for the appointment of Mr. Mandeep Singh Chhatwal as Non-Executive Director, Mr. Edouard Mac Nab as Executive Director – Finance & Control and CFO, and Mr. Jagdeep Singh Marahar as Executive Director – Technical. Remote e-voting will take place from February 12 to March 13, 2026, with results announced by March 14, 2026.
The appointment of key directors, especially those in financial and technical leadership roles, is important for the company's governance and strategic direction. While not immediately market-moving, these appointments have a medium-term impact on the company's operational and financial management.
The announcement concerns routine board appointments and the process for shareholder approval via postal ballot and e-voting. It does not contain any information that would significantly impact the company's stock price in the short term, hence it is considered neutral.
Nestlé India Limited has issued a Notice of Postal Ballot seeking shareholder approval for the appointment of three key individuals to its board. Mr. Mandeep Singh Chhatwal is proposed as a Non-Executive Director, Mr. Edouard Dominique Jean Mac Nab as Whole-time Director designated as "Executive Director – Finance & Control and Chief Financial Officer," and Mr. Jagdeep Singh Marahar as Whole-time Director designated as "Executive Director – Technical."
The remote e-voting period for members to cast their votes on these special business items will commence on Thursday, February 12, 2026, at 9:00 AM IST and conclude on Friday, March 13, 2026, at 5:00 PM IST. The results of the remote e-voting are expected to be declared on or before Saturday, March 14, 2026, by 5:00 PM IST.
Mr. Chhatwal, with over 30 years of experience in finance within the Nestlé Group, currently serves as CFO for Zone Asia, Oceania & Africa. Mr. Mac Nab's appointment as Executive Director – Finance & Control and CFO is proposed for a term of five consecutive years from March 1, 2026, to February 28, 2031. Mr. Marahar's appointment as Executive Director – Technical is proposed for a term of five consecutive years from June 1, 2026, to May 31, 2031.
