National Fertilizers Limited (NFL) has addressed a notice from the National Stock Exchange (NSE) regarding non-compliance with Regulation 17(1) of the SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015, for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. The matter was placed before the Board of Directors during their meeting on June 29, 2026.
The Board noted that the company had previously requested the NSE and BSE to withdraw the notices and waive any fines, explaining that NFL had no control over the appointment of Independent Directors. Following detailed deliberations, the Board resolved that the company should re-engage with the Department of Fertilizers (DoF) to ensure the appointment of an adequate number of Independent Directors to comply with Listing Regulations.
The company's corporate office is located at A-11, Sector-24, Noida-201301, and its registered office is at Scope Complex, Core-III, 7, Institutional Area, Lodhi Road, New Delhi-110003.
