He previously served asan Executive Director on the board of AG Enviro InfraProjects Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiaryof the Company, that merged into the Companyeffective December 31, 2025, where he was activelyemployed and drawing remuneration.
The above re-appointment forms part of the notice ofthe ensuing AGM and the resolution is recommendedfor members’ approval.
The Board of Directors, based on the declarationssubmitted by the Independent Directors (IDs), hasaffirmed that each ID meets the independence criteriaas specified under Section 149 of the Act and the SEBIListing Regulations, confirming their independencefrom management. Additionally, in accordance withSection 150 of the Act and Rule 6 of the Companies(Appointment & Qualification of Directors) Rules,2014, all IDs have registered themselves in theIndependent Directors’ Databank maintained by theIndian Institute of Corporate Affairs (IICA).
The Board is also satisfied that the IndependentDirectors possess the requisite integrity, expertiseand experience (including proficiency) required toeffectively discharge their duties and responsibilities.Further, all Independent Directors have either passedthe online proficiency self-assessment test conductedby the Institute or are exempt from undertaking thesame in accordance with the applicable provisions ofthe aforesaid Rules.
To ensure that all Directors are adequately equippedto discharge their duties effectively, the Companyinstitutes familiarisation programmes, from time totime, aligned with the requirements of the Act andother applicable regulations. These programmes arethoughtfully designed to provide each Director witha structured and customised induction experience,taking into account their individual background,professional expertise, and specific areas of interest,thereby enabling a smooth integration into theBoard’s functioning.
As part of this initiative, Directors are encouragedto undertake visits to the Company’s operationalfacilities, enabling them to gain first-hand insightinto on-ground activities and interact directly withmembers of Senior Management. Alongside thesevisits, the familiarisation process includes detailedpresentations by the management team covering keyaspects such as the Company’s strategic priorities,
operational framework, market competitivenessas well as the framework for risk identificationand mitigation.
These programmes enable them to activelyparticipate in Board deliberations, provide informedand constructive guidance, and exercise effectiveoversight over management, thereby contributingto strengthened governance standards and thelong-term sustainable growth of the Company.
Further, the details of the Familiarisation Programmeprovided to the Directors is available on the websiteof the Company at https://www.antony-waste.com/docs/investors/corporate-governance/policies/Familarisation Programme of IDs.pdf
The Company operates in a sector that is bothoperationally demanding and governance-intensive,where the quality of leadership, managerial oversight,and strategic decision-making directly influences itsability to deliver on long-term urban infrastructuremandates. In this context, the caliber, integrity, andcommitment of its Directors, KMPs, and SeniorManagement constitute some of the Company’s mostcritical strengths.
Recognising this, the Board of Directors has framed aNomination and Remuneration Policy that establishesa structured and transparent framework governingthe appointment and remuneration of Directors,KMPs, and Senior Management of the Company. ThePolicy, formulated on the recommendation of theNomination and Remuneration Committee (‘NRC’), isdesigned to attract, retain, and motivate individualsof the highest professional caliber — those whobring not only functional expertise but also a deepunderstanding of the strategic, regulatory, andoperational complexities that define India’s evolvingwaste management landscape.
The Policy lays down guiding principles andphilosophy for the determination of remunerationpayable to Executive and Non-Executive Directorsas well as to KMPs, Senior Management, and otheremployees of the Company. Remuneration structuresare designed to strike an appropriate balancebetween fixed and variable components, ensuringa direct and meaningful linkage between individualperformance, organisational outcomes, and long¬term value creation for stakeholders.
Beyond remuneration, the Policy establishes clearcriteria for determining the qualifications, positiveattributes, and independence of Directors, and for theappointment of KMPs and Senior Management. Giventhe nature of the Company’s business — which spanslarge-scale municipal contracts, multi-site operations,technology-driven processing infrastructure, andengagement with civic bodies across India — theNRC places particular emphasis on identifyingindividuals who combine operational rigour withstrategic vision, and who are capable of providingmeaningful guidance across the full spectrum of theCompany’s activities.
The NRC policy is available on the website of theCompany at https://www.antonv-waste.com/docs/investors/corporate-governance/policies/AWHCLNomination and Remuneration Policy.pdf
The Company’s approach to governance is anchoredin continuous self-assessment and an enduringcommitment to improvement. Operating in a highlycomplex and publicly accountable sector such asmunicipal waste management, effective Boardoversight and strategic guidance are critical toorganisational success. Accordingly, the annual Boardevaluation extends beyond regulatory compliance,reinforcing AWHCL’s commitment to institutionalaccountability and governance excellence.
The NRC has formulated a policy for evaluation ofthe Board, its Committees and Directors, includingcriteria for Independent Directors, and the samehas been approved and adopted by the Board.
