The company will seek the nod of shareholders through a postal ballot, it said in a filing to BSE on Thursday.

Shareholders' approval will be sought for the change of name of the company from 'GMR Infrastructure Limited' to 'GMR Airports Infrastructure Ltd' and consequent alteration in the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the company, the filing said.

The voting through the electronic mode will commence from July 29 and end on August 27.
