§±±b: Board Comments on Fine levied bv the Exchanges
Sir/Madam,
This is with reference to NSE Letter and BSE Email dated 25th August, 2026, regarding non-compliance
with the requirements pertaining to composition of the Board, quorum of Board meetings, constitution of
committees namely Audit, Nomination and Remuneration, Stakeholder Relationship, and Risk Management
for the quarter ended 30th )une 2026 as stipulated under the provisions of SEBI (Listing Obligations and
Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, and imposing fine on the Company for the same. The same
was intimated vide our letter No: IRFC/SE/2026-27/42 dated 26th August 2026.
As advised by the Exchanges, the aforesaid matter of non-compliance was placed before the Board in its
meeting held on 07th September 2026 wherein the Board deliberated and noted the position of non-
compliances with respect to the composition of the Board, quorum of Board meetings, constitution of
committees namely Audit, Nomination and Remuneration, Stakeholder Relationship, and Risk Management
and the fine imposed by the Exchanges. In this regard, the Board desired that follow-up be made with the
appointing authority i.e. Ministry of Railways (MOR), to expedite the appointment of requisite number of
Independent Directors on the Board of IRFC. The Board also noted that the stock exchanges have been
requested to waive the fine imposed on the Company, as the matter of appointment of Directors is beyond
the control of the Company. Board further noted that, in earlier instances of non-compliance of similar
nature, NSE & BSE had already waived fine imposed on Company on the similar ground for the period of
March 2021 to December 2025.
Furthermore, IRFC being a Government Company, the power to appoint Directors vests with the President
of India through administrative ministry i.e., Ministry of Railways (MOR) and Company has no control in
the appointment of Directors on its Board.
This is submitted for your information and record.
Thanking You,
For Indian Railway Finance Corporation Limited
