Strengthen your board’s effectiveness with a structured, independent evaluation platform designed by governance experts.


In a world where boards are expected to do more than ever—steer strategy, ensure accountability, and protect stakeholder interests—board performance has become a critical governance priority.

BoardGauge is India’s first tech-enabled platform for independently facilitated board evaluations, created to meet the mandates of SEBI’s Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements (LODR) and deliver deep, data-driven insights on board effectiveness.

Built in consultation with governance experts and former faculty from IIM Ahmedabad, BoardGauge uses structured tools, guided processes, and expert facilitation to deliver measurable, actionable evaluations across board, committee, and director levels.

Whether you're a compliance-focused listed entity or a progressive board looking to benchmark and improve, BoardGauge helps boards reflect, improve, and lead better.
