other trustees was already taken and approved pursuant to the aforesaid resolution of 17 October 2024 by each of the trustees and the resolution proposed in Circular No: 87 dated 18 October 2025 is a formalistic one to give effect to an already taken unanimous decision of the trustees," Mehli Mistry wrote in response to a circular, dated 18 October, seeking reappointment of Srinivasan.

"I hereby consent to the reappointment of Mr. Venu Srinivasan commencing on 24 October 2025, provided that an identical unanimous resolution is passed by the trustees in respect of all other Trustees, as and when their respective tenures expire, in accordance with the unanimous resolution of 17 October 2024," Mistry wrote in his response.

"For the avoidance of doubt, should any trustee elect not to pass this resolution reappointing Mr. Venu Srinivasan or an identical unanimous resolution for all other trustees as and when their respective tenures expire, then in such event, I do not provide my formal approval for the reappointment of Mr. Venu Srinivasan in terms of Circular No 87 dated 18 October 2025. Needless to state, I do not expect such a situation to arise," Mistry said.
