Shake off that boardom
Agencies Representational Sebi has mandated annual board performance reviews for listed companies with the intent of improving governance standards and ensuring agile and effective boards. But much like routine health checks, board evaluations are usually pushed back to another day, rushed through like a Monday morning breakfast, or treated as yet another compliance hassle. Very few boards treat it as meaningful methods of evaluation involving paper-based surveys, interviews and internal reviews have mostly fallen short. They are time-consuming, heavily reliant on subjective judgement, and reports tend to gather dust after board meetings. Thankfully, digital transformation is slowly but steadily bringing rigour, relevance and repeatability to board evaluations. Technology is not just simplifying the process but enhancing its quality as well. From board portals to AI-enhanced analytics, tech is shaking up the performance evaluations process of boards. Here are four shifts India Inc should know while preparing for the future: Periodic rituals to continuous insight Traditional board evaluations follow a rigid cycle of once in every three years for in-depth reviews, with lighter (symbolic?) annual quickies. With digital tools, evaluations can become more frequent, flexible and embedded into the rhythm of board Europe, a clear trend is emerging where more boards are moving to annual evaluations, sometimes with focused interim reviews in between. These 'in-betweeners' can be tailored to specific committees or themes such as audit oversight, strategy alignment or digital Indian enterprises, especially those facing major market shifts, or family-to-professional transitions, such agility can be a game-changer. Digital platforms reduce the cost and administrative burden of evaluations, and allow directors to evaluate performance in a way that feels relevant, not regulatory compliance. Subjective judgement to data-driven oversight One of the biggest criticisms of today's board evaluations is their subjectivity. When directors assess each other, implicit biases, interpersonal politics and unwritten hierarchies can creep in. Results can feel vague, cautious or sanitised, which defeats the very purpose of the exercise. Technology helps move the needle from opinion to evidence. Digital platforms capture structured data aligned with clearly defined board KPIs, including strategic execution, financial oversight, risk management, succession planning and stakeholder engagement. More importantly, they enable year-on-year tracking, which is invaluable. With consistent digital tools, companies can build longitudinal data, making it possible to spot performance trends over time. In the past, each evaluation might have involved a new consultant with a different lens, making comparisons difficult. In India, where regulators, proxy advisory firms and institutional investors are increasingly scrutinising board behaviour, data-driven evaluations offer both credibility and clarity. They also align well with Sebi's push for transparency and long-term value creation. Generic templates to tailored evaluations All boards are not created equal. A large, listed conglomerate, a promoter-led tech unicorn, and a PSU each has vastly different governance challenges. And, yet, until recently, many digital evaluation platforms used 'one-size-fits-all' questionnaires that failed to capture the finer details. This is tools allow deep customisation. Evaluations can now be structured around company lifecycle stage, industry dynamics, board composition, strategic priorities and even anticipated disruptions. A logistics company undergoing digital transformation may want questions on tech-savviness and cybersecurity oversight. A manufacturing board preparing for succession may focus on talent pipeline and leadership India, where board diversity, independent director effectiveness and ESG oversight will all be in sharp focus soon, tailored evaluations are especially useful. They allow boards to gather input beyond the boardroom. Confidential feedback from CFOs, compliance officers and external auditors can highlight blind spots in committee functioning. A board chair may believe the audit committee is effective, but what does the internal audit team think? Tech tools enable this 360° feedback in a secure, anonymised manner. Embrace emerging AI Theoretically, AI holds immense promise in enhancing board evaluations. Algorithms can analyse meeting minutes to flag overlooked agenda items, assess time spent on key issues, detect redundancy across committees, and even predict future director skill needs based on corporate strategy. If a company is entering new markets or industries, AI could help assess whether the board has the requisite global experience or regulatory could also objectively benchmark director contributions by analysing attendance, speaking time, committee involvement and follow-through on action adoption remains limited. Company secretaries cite internal policies that restrict the use of external AI tools. Concerns around data security, confidentiality and compliance with DPDP Act make boards wary. As AI tools mature and governance around data-sharing strengthens, selective use of AI in internal evaluations may become more acceptable. Striking a balance between AI analytics and human judgements will be Inc boards are under increasing pressure to perform, not just from Sebi but from shareholders, rating agencies and civil society as well. As businesses grow more complex and stakeholder expectations rise, the traditional approach to board evaluation simply won't suffice. Board evaluations done right are corporate a world where opacity is liability, data is destiny. As a veteran puts it, 'Great boards aren't born. They're beta-tested.'

ITC to invest Rs 20,000 cr across businesses; ‘Bharat First' to anchor global aspirations: CMD
'As we continue to scale new horizons, ITC plans to invest Rs 20,000 crore across businesses in the medium term,' Puri said, without providing further details. 'Encouraged by the promise of the Indian economy, your company has invested in eight world-class manufacturing facilities in the recent past, with an outlay of nearly Rs 4,500 crore,' Puri informed shareholders at the company's Annual General Meeting held virtually. Kolkata, Jul 25 (PTI) Diversified conglomerate ITC Ltd plans to invest Rs 20,000 crore across its businesses over the medium term to strengthen manufacturing capabilities and scale emerging growth vectors, Chairman and Managing Director Sanjiv Puri said on Friday. He had earlier announced this investment plan during the 2024 AGM speech. The investment could span in areas such as FMCG, sustainable packaging and export-oriented value-added agricultural products. As we continue to scale new horizons. While he did not provide a specific timeline for the proposed capex, Puri said the investment will be directed toward areas aligned with the company's 'ITC Next' strategy, which seeks to build a future-ready portfolio through both organic and inorganic expansion. He said the company has built 40 state-of-the-art manufacturing assets, enriching ITC's robust ecosystem of 250 dedicated factories and 7,500 MSMEs. 'Across your company's businesses, over 90 per cent of value-addition takes place in the country, enlarging ITC's contribution to the economy,' he noted. A key pillar of this strategy is ITC's foray into the online food services space through a fast-scaling food-tech platform. 'A new vector of growth envisioned in the ITC Next strategy is your company's Food-Tech business, which leverages your company's strengths in foods, hotels and digital technologies to tap into the fast-growing online food services segment,' Puri said. The business has already scaled up to 60 cloud kitchens across five cities under four brands — ITC Master Chef Creations, Aashirvaad Soul Creations, Sunfeast Baked Creations, and Sansho by ITC Master Chef. 'This business has registered a CAGR of 108% in the 3 years since inception, setting new benchmarks in culinary innovation and tech-enabled operations, gaining increasing consumer franchise,' he said, adding that the platform is now being progressively introduced across the country. On ITC's global outlook, Puri reiterated that its global ambitions are anchored in a strong domestic foundation. 'It is our firm belief that Indian brands must adorn the global stage and towards that, establish an enduring legacy in Bharat first, before making an impact overseas,' he said. ITC's FMCG portfolio currently represents an annual consumer spend of over Rs 34,000 crore and reaches more than 260 million households across India, with a growing presence in over 70 international markets. 'The growing consumer patronage and trust over the years for your company's products emboldens our aspiration to expand our FMCG portfolio with the overarching ambition to serve domestic and global consumers with these world-class home-grown brands of impeccable quality,' Puri said. The company launched over 100 new products last year across categories such as health and nutrition, hygiene, naturals, convenience and on-the-go, while continuing to build on mega brands and pursue value-accretive acquisitions like 24 Mantra Organic, Prasuma, Yoga Bar and Mother Sparsh. Responding to shareholder queries, Puri said the company had introduced over 300 new products in the past three years, highlighting innovation as a continuing priority to meet dynamic consumer preferences. On the performance of the paperboards and packaging business, Puri acknowledged that it remains a 'cyclical industry' currently facing headwinds due to 'dumping of cheap imports and a surge in wood prices'. He added that the industry has sought 'safeguard measures' from authorities to address structural challenges. PTI BSM RG This report is auto-generated from PTI news service.
