Jagran Prakashan Limited ( (IN:JAGRAN) ) has issued an update.

Jagran Prakashan Limited has updated exchanges on ongoing legal proceedings before the National Company Law Tribunal in a governance dispute involving its promoters and key shareholders. The matter centres on a special notice seeking an extraordinary general meeting to vote on the removal of seven independent directors and one whole-time director, along with related disputes over who is authorized to exercise voting rights for a major shareholder entity.

The company, along with Jagran Media Network Investment Private Limited and certain promoter family members, has filed multiple applications contesting the special notice and seeking clarity on voting authority tied to a 2023 board resolution. The NCLT Allahabad has heard arguments on three connected applications, reserved its order and scheduled pronouncement, with final submissions in the underlying company petitions also continuing, leaving board composition and control questions pending for stakeholders until the tribunal’s decision.
