CEO leaves AG Ventures. They used to be Oriental Carbon and Chemicals, so they are deep in the carbon space. Not much detail on who takes over or if this changes their direction.
The timeline is weird. Resigning with a two day notice usually means something is off behind the scenes. Does anyone know if they have a transition plan for their current projects?
If they are pivoting away from traditional carbon chemicals toward something else, a leadership change makes sense. But the lack of a named successor is a red flag for operational stability.
Standard SEBI Regulation 30 filing. The company is following the rules on disclosure, but the reason cited is the usual vague career opportunities line.
