Persons have been included in the databank on the basis of the declarations made by them in their respective bio-data.
The proposals for appointment of Independent Directors on the Boards of CPSEs are initiated by the concerned administrative Ministries which can propose the names of eligible persons from their own sources and DPE databank is intended to help administrative Ministries in short-listing suitable names, in case the concerned Ministries so desire. Therefore, inclusion of name(s) in DPE databank does not imply that name(s) from the DPE databank would necessarily be considered for appointment as Independent Director on the Boards of CPSEs.
