Mumbai, India – Mrugesh Trading Ltd has initiated a postal ballot process to seek shareholder approval for significant leadership and audit function changes. The company is asking investors to ratify the appointment of Mr. Babubhai Bhalabhai Makwana as its new Managing Director and to appoint new statutory and secretarial auditors.
Leadership and Audit Decisions
The company is seeking shareholder consent for Mr. Makwana to serve as Managing Director for a five-year term, running from February 20, 2026, to February 19, 2031. His monthly salary is capped at ₹1,00,000. Mr. Makwana officially took over the role on February 20, 2026, succeeding Mr. Arpit Piyushbhai Shah.
In addition to the MD appointment, Mrugesh Trading is proposing new auditors. M/s. D DS & Associates are set to be appointed as statutory auditors to fill a vacancy left by M/s. J Singh & Associates, who resigned effective January 30, 2026, citing internal reasons. M/s. Dhruvi Patel & Associates are proposed as the new secretarial auditor for the financial year 2025-26.
Shareholder Voting Process

Company Context
These appointments are vital for Mrugesh Trading's governance framework, aiming to provide leadership stability and ensure financial transparency and compliance through independent audits. Such decisions are standard procedures within the NBFC and finance sector, where companies like Sonal Mercantile Ltd, Fedders Holding Ltd, and A.K.Capital Services Ltd also operate. While direct comparisons for MD and auditor appointments are unique to each company, investor scrutiny of governance changes is common across the sector.
