The full read
Harsh Gandhi, the whole-time director of Chartered Logistics, has resigned effective end of June, citing personal reasons. He is also leaving the board of the company's IFSC subsidiary. For a nano-cap with a market cap of just ₹77 cr and a trailing net loss of ₹226.53 lakh in FY26, every board member matters. The company has not named a successor. That is the open question. Routine departures happen, but when the company is already in loss and has a tiny market cap, silence on succession adds a layer of uncertainty. The stock may not react, as the resignation itself carries no controversy, but the governance gap is real. The open question is how quickly the company fills the seat and whether there are any further changes at the top.
