Abstract: The objective of this research is to investigate how corporate governance mechanism affects working capital management of Indian energy companies. The sample includes seven companies listed in the National Stock Exchange during the 2013-2022 financial years. The data was collected from the database of the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) Prowess and annual reports of the respective company, which were downloaded from the National Stock Exchange. We first diversified the characteristics of the board of directors in a diversity of board and diversity in board. Panel data analysis was applied in the study to test the hypothesis. The study's findings showed the positive impact of multiple directorships, ROA, and growth while an insignificant effect was found of other variables on working capital management. The findings are useful for investors, policymakers, and other stakeholders who are concerned with working capital efficiency.
