SJVN fined ₹5.75 lakh by BSE & NSE for non-compliance with listing norms
SJVN Limited has been fined ₹5.75 lakh by BSE and NSE for non-compliance with SEBI listing regulations for the quarter ended March 2026. The fines are primarily for issues related to board composition and audit committee constitution. SJVN has requested the government to expedite director appointments to ensure future compliance.
The fine amount is relatively small compared to SJVN's overall financial standing, and the issue relates to procedural compliance rather than a significant operational or financial setback.
The company has been fined by stock exchanges for non-compliance with listing regulations, which is a negative development.
SJVN Limited has received notices from BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited imposing fines for non-compliance with certain provisions of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The Board of Directors noted these fines and decided on the comments to be submitted to the stock exchanges.
SJVN stated that as a Government Company, the power to appoint Directors vests with the Ministry of Power, Government of India, and the Ministry of Power and Energy, Government of Himachal Pradesh. The company or its Board does not hold any such powers. SJVN has made requests to these ministries to expedite the appointment of Independent Directors to comply with SEBI regulations. The company understands that the government is in the process of appointing the Chairman and Managing Director (CMD), Whole-time Directors, and Independent Directors soon.
The fines were levied for non-compliance with Regulation 17(1) for failure to appoint a woman director and Regulation 18(1) for non-compliance with the constitution of the audit committee, for the quarter ended March 2026. The total fine amount, including GST, amounts to ₹5,75,840. The company is advised to pay the fines within 15 days, failing which action related to freezing of promoter's shareholding may be initiated. Further, a second consecutive quarter of non-compliance for certain regulations could lead to the company being transferred to the Z group, liable for suspension of trading.
