Institutional shareholders are increasingly voting against resolutions passed by company managements, indicating a growing trend among investors to make their voices heard. In FY23, over 20% of institutional shareholders opposed 1,833 resolutions, a 44% increase over the previous year. For Nifty50 companies, resolutions with over 20% dissenting votes increased by 35% YoY. The rise in advocacy is attributed to mandatory e-voting, stewardship codes, proxy firms, and increased institutional holding. Despite the dissent, the majority of resolutions still passed due to high promoter holding.
