RVNL Board Comments on Exchange Fines for Director Composition Lapses
RVNL Board commented on fines from NSE and BSE for non-compliance with SEBI regulations regarding Board and Committee composition for quarters ending December 31, 2025, and March 31, 2026. The company is awaiting appointments of Independent Directors from the Ministry of Railways.
While the non-compliance and fines are noted, the company is actively following up with the Ministry of Railways for resolution, and the impact on operations or financials is likely minimal.
The company has been fined by stock exchanges for non-compliance with listing regulations related to board composition, indicating a governance issue.
Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) has issued a statement regarding fines levied by the National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) and BSE Limited (BSE). These fines were imposed for non-compliance with Regulations 17(1), 18(1), and 19(1) & 19(2) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, concerning the composition of the Company's Board of Directors and its Committees. The non-compliances relate to the quarters ended December 31, 2025, and March 31, 2026.
The matter was presented to the Board of Directors in a meeting held on July 25, 2026. The Board acknowledged the non-compliances and the imposed fines. The company stated that it is continuously following up with the Ministry of Railways for the appointment of Independent Directors, including a woman Independent Director, to fill existing vacancies. RVNL emphasized that as a Government Company, it has no role in the appointment of Directors and has sent multiple reminder letters to the Ministry of Railways requesting immediate action.
The company had previously informed the stock exchanges about the receipt of communications regarding these non-compliances via letters dated March 2, 2026, and May 27, 2026.
