RVNL fined ₹9.55 Lakh by BSE for Board Composition Non-Compliance in Q4FY26
BSE has imposed a fine of ₹9.55 Lakh on Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) for non-compliance regarding Board and committee composition for Q4FY26. The company stated that Director appointments are handled by the Ministry of Railways and expects a waiver upon compliance.
The fine amount is relatively small for the company, and it is expected to be waived upon compliance. The announcement explicitly states 'Has no impact' on financial, operational, or other activities.
The company has received a fine from the stock exchange, which is a negative development.
Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) has been fined ₹9,55,800 (inclusive of GST) by the BSE Limited for non-compliance with regulations concerning the composition of the Board and its committees for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. The company received the communication regarding the fine on May 27, 2026.
The alleged violations pertain to Regulations 17(1), 18(1), & 19(1)(2) of the SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015. RVNL has clarified to BSE via a letter dated May 11, 2026, that as a Government company, the appointment of Directors, including Independent Directors, is vested with the President of India through the Ministry of Railways. RVNL itself has no role in the appointment process.
The company expects to be eligible for a waiver of these fines once compliance is achieved upon the appointment of the requisite number of Directors by the Ministry of Railways. RVNL noted that similar fines imposed by NSE and BSE in earlier instances have been waived off.
