Vodafone Idea has inducted legal expert Gopika Pant onto its board as an Additional Director and Independent Woman Director for a five-year tenure beginning September 17, 2026. The board cleared her appointment on September 14, which now requires shareholder approval.

Pant, who has over four decades of experience in the legal field, founded Indian Law Partners. She is qualified to practise in India and is also admitted to the New York Bar. Her areas of expertise include corporate and commercial law, cross-border transactions, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate restructuring.

Vodafone Idea has initiated a postal ballot to secure shareholder approval for both appointments.
