Auditors rotation
Deloitte Haskins & Sells (Chartered Accountants) are the auditors of the company since the
company got listed (2006). So no rotation was happened during the period.
Conclusion:
This company is promotor oriented company where promotor holds majority of the shares in the
company. If we see the shareholding pattern of the company general public holds only around
13% of the shares. If we see the structure of the board, most of the directors including
independent directors are non-executive directors so directors who take parts in execution
decision making are only three out of them two belongs to promotors group so, it is clearly
evident that most of the executional decisions are in the hands of the promotors. Astral is the
emerging company, it has yet to explore all its potentials, in future if promotors sells out their
holdings then there are chances that it remain out of influence of the promotors.
Here in this company, government doesnt hold any power as well as there are no labour union
exists in this company. Based on the data available over the internet, till date no issues were
found regarding whistle blowing activities and confrontations by any members or stakeholders.
Since the company got listed majority of the directors are same including independent directors,
at the same times auditors of the company was also not rotated during this period of time.
So, in conclusion we can say that right now this company doesnt have much voice for the small
shareholders.
