Corporate Governance

Transparency & Accountability

The timely and accurate disclosure of information regarding the company’s financial situation, performance, board structure, and ownership is an essential part of Corporate Governance. These arrangements define how an organization directs and controls itself and the people associated with it.

The Corporate Governance Policy is reviewed at least once a year and modified whenever necessary to ensure alignment with best global practices.

Upholding Trust

Our corporate philosophy is built on ethical, fair, and transparent governance practices. The Board and its committees uphold all fiduciary responsibilities, ensuring fairness, independence, and transparency across all decisions through a strong governance framework.

Company’s Philosophy on Corporate Governance

Corporate Governance aims to meet stakeholder aspirations and societal expectations. Rather than being a regulatory requirement, it is a culture that guides the Board, Management, and Employees toward the best interests of stakeholders.

At Singhania Brothers Limited, Corporate Governance is considered a key driver of efficiency, growth, and investor confidence. Our philosophy states:

“As a good corporate citizen, the Company is committed to sound corporate practices based on its vision, values & principles to build stakeholder confidence, ensuring long-term success and sustainability.”

An active, well-informed, and independent Board forms the core of our governance structure, overseeing management actions and protecting stakeholder interests.
