- The term runs from 23 October 2026 to 22 October 2031, both days inclusive.

Arihant Superstructures Limited has appointed CA Pradeep Mehta as an Additional Director in a non-executive, independent capacity. The board took the decision by circular resolution dated 23 October 2026, and the company filed the intimation with the stock exchange the same day under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
What the filing says
The appointment is for five consecutive years, from 23 October 2026 to 22 October 2031, both days inclusive. Mehta is categorised as non-executive and independent, and he is not liable to retire by rotation during this term. The filing states that he is not related to any existing director of the company and has not been debarred from holding a directorship by any SEBI order or other authority.
The appointment is subject to approval by the company's members, as required under company law and the listing rules. At the time of the filing, shareholders had not yet approved it. The company has not announced a date for a postal ballot or general meeting for this purpose.
Public information on Mehta's background is limited to a chartered accountant qualification, a certificate in independent directorship, and a senior leadership programme. The filing itself does not set out his full career history, so readers should treat those details as secondary to the company's own disclosure.
Context for the company
Arihant Superstructures was incorporated in 1983, according to registry records. The company describes its work as covering the full real estate development cycle, from land identification and acquisition to planning, construction and marketing. It says it operates in Rajasthan and Maharashtra.
The board has been changing in 2026. On 21 July 2026, Dr. Raghuveer Singh Rajpurohit was appointed as an Additional Director in a non-executive, independent role for the period from 21 July 2026 to 20 July 2031, also subject to shareholder approval. On 15 May 2026, the board approved audited results for FY26, recommended a final dividend of ₹0.25 per share, and appointed Parth Chhajer and Bhavik Chhajer as Joint Managing Directors.
- Board appointment date: 23 October 2026, by circular resolution
- Term: 23 October 2026 to 22 October 2031
- Approval needed: shareholders, not yet given at filing
- Linked project, land or sales change: none in the filing
What investors will watch
For investors, the appointment is a governance step rather than a business one. The filing does not link it to any project launch, land purchase, sales figure or pricing decision, so it does not change the company's operating outlook on its own.
The next step to track is the shareholder vote on Mehta's appointment. The date of that vote, and the result, will be set out in the company's exchange filings. The same applies to the approval of Rajpurohit's appointment from July, which is still pending in the same way.
