Advance Multitech board meet: ₹100 crore borrowing plan

What the company has scheduled for September 1

Advance Multitech Limited (BSE: 526331) has scheduled a Board of Directors meeting for September 1, 2026 to consider a set of funding and governance proposals. The meeting is set for 5:00 pm at the company’s registered office in Ahmedabad. On the funding side, the board will evaluate a proposal to raise funds through equity instruments, including equity shares or warrants convertible into equity shares. Alongside fundraising, the board will also consider a higher borrowing ceiling and a separate borrowing line from directors. The agenda also includes multiple board and audit-related actions, including noting resignations, appointing new directors, and taking up auditor appointments.

Fundraising proposal: equity shares or convertible warrants

The September 1 meeting agenda includes evaluating a fund-raising plan through issuance of equity shares or warrants convertible into equity shares. The company has not disclosed the proposed size of the equity raise in the information provided. It also has not specified whether the issuance, if approved, would be through a preferential issue or any other route in this meeting notice. What is clear is that the board intends to deliberate on equity-linked instruments as part of its capital planning.

This is not the first time the company has placed fundraising on the board’s agenda in FY26. The company had earlier rescheduled a board meeting from April 15 to April 27, 2026 to deliberate on fundraising through preferential issue of shares or warrants. That April 27, 2026 board meeting concluded without passing any resolution, as disclosed.

Borrowing limits: proposal up to ₹100 crore

Apart from equity-linked fundraising, the board will review a proposal to increase the company’s borrowing limits up to ₹100 crore. The agenda also includes a proposal to borrow up to ₹50 crore from directors. These items indicate that the company is considering a mix of balance-sheet borrowing and promoter or director support, in addition to equity instruments.

The company has not provided details in the text on the use of proceeds, the tenure of borrowings, interest rates, or security package for the director loans. Those specifics, if approved, typically emerge after board decisions and follow-up disclosures.

Managing Director resignation to be recorded

The September 1 agenda also includes noting the resignation of Arvind Vishwanath Goenka from the post of Managing Director. The company has disclosed that it accepted the resignations of its Managing Director and four other board members effective September 1, 2026, with resignations taking effect at the close of business hours on that date.

In the same set of disclosures, the company said the resigning directors confirmed there are no material reasons for resignation other than those stated in their respective letters. The company also told the BSE on August 25, 2026 that the changes reflected mutual exits and other project handling as reasons for the resignations.

Wider board changes and new leadership appointments

The agenda extends beyond noting departures. The company has also disclosed that five new additional directors have been appointed, including Rahul Ashokbhai Jain as Managing Director and Chairman. The names of the other newly appointed additional directors are not specified in the provided text, and are therefore not included here.

In addition to the Managing Director’s resignation, the company will note resignations of directors Hiral Rajeshkumar Shah, Ravindrakumar Laljibhai Mehta, Govind Ganpatlal Shah, and Minaxi Govind Shah from their respective director positions.

Auditor reshuffle: resignation in August, new appointment proposed

Audit-related developments are a key part of the current governance timeline. Advance Multitech disclosed that its statutory auditor, M/s Suresh R Shah & Associates, Chartered Accountants, resigned with effect from August 11, 2026. The resignation was disclosed under Regulation 30 of the SEBI LODR Regulations.

The company stated the audit firm cited remuneration as the reason, saying the remuneration payable was not commercially viable relative to the scope of work, effort, and professional resources required. The auditor also confirmed there were no other material reasons for the resignation, and that no concerns were raised with the Audit Committee or the Board prior to resigning.

At the September 1 board meeting, the company will consider appointing M/s Rajesh J Shah & Associates, Chartered Accountants, as statutory auditors for a term of five consecutive years. It will also appoint M/s Shailesh Bharwad & Associates as Internal Auditor for FY27 and take the Secretarial Audit Report on record.

AGM planning and shareholder processes

The board will decide the date, time, and venue for the company’s 47th Annual General Meeting (AGM) and approve the notice convening the AGM. It will also appoint M/s Patawari & Associates as the scrutinizer for e-voting at the AGM. The agenda includes approval of the draft Directors’ Report for the financial year ended March 31, 2026.

These steps matter because they set the formal route for shareholder approvals, including auditor appointments and any resolutions that may be placed before members.

Recent financial performance: turnaround in Q1FY27

Advance Multitech reported a sharp improvement in profitability for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q1FY27). The company posted a standalone net profit of ₹4.2789 crore, reversing a standalone net loss of ₹0.4205 crore in the same quarter last year. The board considered and approved the standalone unaudited financial results at a meeting held on August 11, 2026 at the registered office in Ahmedabad, from 05:00 pm to 06:20 pm.

For the financial year ended March 31, 2026 (FY26), the company reported a net profit of ₹1.4562 crore, up from ₹0.3551 crore in FY25. For Q4 FY26, it reported a net profit of ₹2.5468 crore, reversing a loss of ₹0.1507 crore in the same quarter a year earlier. The board adopted audited standalone financial results during a meeting held on May 23, 2026.

Market impact and why the combination matters

The September 1 agenda brings capital planning and governance transitions into the same window. On one side, the company is weighing both equity-linked fundraising and higher borrowing headroom, including a director borrowing line. On the other, the company is simultaneously recording senior management exits, onboarding new leadership, and resetting key assurance functions through auditor and internal auditor appointments.

The disclosures also show a tight sequence of events: an auditor resignation effective August 11, 2026, a BSE disclosure on board changes dated August 25, 2026, and a board meeting scheduled for September 1, 2026 to formalise multiple decisions. For investors tracking compliance, the company has referenced Regulation 30 for material disclosures and has provided specific meeting times and effective dates.

Conclusion

Advance Multitech’s September 1, 2026 board meeting is set to address three core areas: potential equity or warrant fundraising, an increase in borrowing limits up to ₹100 crore (including up to ₹50 crore from directors), and multiple governance actions including a Managing Director transition and auditor appointments. The next set of confirmed outputs will be the board’s decisions after the September 1 meeting and the finalised details for the 47th AGM notice and e-voting process.
