InterGlobe Aviation, which runs the country’s largest airline IndiGo, on Saturday said it would seek shareholder approval for induction of an independent woman director.
A company statement, after its board meeting stretching to two days, said shareholders’ nod would be sought at an annual general meeting for expanding the board of directors to enable this. The prolonged meeting, on Friday and Saturday, was held in the midst of a dispute between the two promoters of the airline.
People in the know said that Indra Nooyi, former CEO of Pepsico, and Neelam Dhawan, former head of HP India, have been approached by the company for this.
