SHANKARA BUILDPRO LIMITED APPOINTS MR. DHANANJAY MIRLAY SRINIVAS
AS MANAGING DIRECTOR
Bengaluru, India, November 1, 2026: Shankara Buildpro Limited (“Buildpro” or “the Company”), one of India’s
leading pure-play building materials & home improvement marketplaces, announced with profound grief the demise
of its Founder and Managing Director, Mr. Sukumar Srinivas, on Friday, October 30, 2026. The Board of Directors
and the management of the Company express their deepest condolences to his family and place on record their
sincere appreciation for his invaluable contribution, visionary leadership and enduring guidance to the Company.
A Tribute to Mr. Sukumar Srinivas
Mr. Sukumar Srinivas founded Shankara Buildpro and built it from the ground up into India’s leading
building materials & home improvement marketplace, and India’s largest organised and professionally
managed steel tube & pipe distribution and retail business. He brought scale, organisation and
professional management to a largely unorganised segment, and built an institution anchored in integrity,
customer trust and operating discipline. He was a mentor to many professionals who have grown with the
Company, and the culture and values he established remain the foundation on which Buildpro operates
today.
Leadership Continuity the Way Forward
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee (NRC) of the Board met on November 1, 2026 and
nominated Mr. Dhananjay Mirlay Srinivas, Executive Director, for the role of Managing Director of the
Company. Subsequently, the Board of Directors met on the same day, approved the recommendation of
the NRC and appointed Mr. Dhananjay Mirlay Srinivas as Managing Director of the Company. The
appointment is subject to approval by the shareholders through postal ballot.
Mr. Dhananjay Mirlay Srinivas joined Shankara Building Products Limited in a senior managerial role on
1st January 2020 and has been on the Board of Shankara Buildpro Limited since inception i.e. 13th
October 2023. He has been groomed for this role by Mr. Sukumar Srinivas for more than six years. He
has been independently driving the Company’s Non-Steel marketplace business, and has been playing a
key role in the Steel marketplace business under the guidance of Mr. C. Ravikumar, Executive Director.
He will be ably supported by an experienced management team, including Mr. C. Ravikumar, Executive
Director; Mr. Alex Varghese, Chief Financial Officer; and other Senior Management Personnel, each of
whom has several years of experience with the Company.
Shankara Buildpro is a professionally managed organisation with a strong executive and management
team, a Board comprising Executive and Independent Directors, and professional managers in every
function of the business. The Board and the management team remain fully committed to executing the
Company’s roadmap and building on the strong foundation Mr. Sukumar Srinivas created.
Mr. Dhananjay Mirlay Srinivas, Managing Director, Shankara Buildpro Limited, said:
“This is a profound loss for everyone at Shankara Buildpro, and a deeply personal one for me and my
family. Mr. Sukumar built this Company from the ground up with a clear vision, strong values and deep
respect for every person he worked with. He was a mentor to all of us, and the institution he built reflects
the way he worked: with integrity, humility and a focus on doing things the right way.
The best tribute we can pay him is to carry his legacy forward. Over the past six years, I have had the
privilege of working under his leadership and seeing at close quarters the capable leadership team, clear
strategy and well-defined roadmap he put in place to take our industry leadership even further. He
ensured that Buildpro would always be an institution larger than any one individual. I take on this
responsibility with a deep sense of duty to the institution he built and to every stakeholder
