The resolution was passed during NDTV’s 38th Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on June 26, 2026. According to the company, the ordinary resolution received an overwhelming 99.95 percent of the total votes cast, reaffirming shareholder confidence in Chengalvarayan’s leadership and industry expertise.
Chengalvarayan will continue to serve as a director liable to retire by rotation in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act and the company’s governance framework.

Over the course of his career, he has been associated with several leading media organizations and is widely recognized for his contributions to business news and financial journalism in India.
