Dato’ Sri Shamir Kumar Nandy was appointed to the Board of Turiya Berhad as an Executive Director, and later nominated as Board Chairman, following the Group’s successful change of control in 2024 via a takeover led by Neo Pixel Sdn Bhd, a current substantial shareholder of the company. He brings over four decades of entrepreneurial and operational experience across property development, private investment, and business recovery, with a long-standing focus on real-world value creation, particularly in repositioning underperforming assets and revitalising businesses for relevance in evolving markets.

Shamir’s foundational work lies in property development and urban repositioning, having led land acquisition and redevelopment projects across the Klang Valley in response to post-crisis economic gaps, and declining confidence in real assets and local enterprise. He went on to establish a group of companies involved in land development, construction, Shari’ah-compliant financing, and capital intermediation, forming a self-sustaining network designed to serve both traditional and emerging sectors, including renewable energy, healthcare, and education.

He currently holds leadership roles in the Southeast Asian arms of the Bin Zayed Group of Companies (UAE), serving as Managing Director of Bin Zayed International (Malaysia) Berhad and Executive Director of Bin Zayed (Singapore) Pte Ltd.

Within the Turiya Group, Shamir serves as a Director of Pyramid Manufacturing Industries Pte Ltd and Iconic Global Limited, the Group’s Singapore-incorporated subsidiaries, where he contributes to the repositioning of legacy operations and the Group’s overall transition toward institutional clarity and commercial renewal. He also maintains an indirect equity interest in Turiya Berhad through Neo Pixel Sdn Bhd, anchoring his Board responsibilities with a long-term view of shareholder value creation and preservation across the Group.

Beyond his corporate engagements, Shamir is an advocate of public-facing service and remains actively committed to humanitarian causes, including youth sponsorship, disaster relief, and healthcare access. He is a Paul Harris Fellow of the Rotary Foundation and a recipient of several civic acknowledgements for his contributions to public service.

Shamir’s leadership reflects a long-standing commitment to value reinvention, institutional discipline, and the cultivation of resilient business ecosystems. He believes in building from the ground up — in owning risk, being accountable, and shaping enterprise that is future-oriented in both purpose and practice.
