S.No.	Particulars of the information	Information provided by the management
1.	Bidding or other process, if any, applied for choosing a party for sale, purchase or supply of goods or services.	The materials and components used in the Company’s product portfolio are highly specialised, proprietary, or manufactured only in designated global facilities within the 3M group. Certain products manufactured or sold by 3M India are defned in product specifcations in a way that requires the use of standard materials sourced exclusively from 3M group companies and these materials cannot be procured from external parties. By sourcing directly from its parent or group entities, 3M India ensures access to standardised quality requirements, consistent compliance frameworks and technical know-how that is not available from external suppliers. This further supports integrated global supply-chain planning, enabling timely delivery, seamless coordination and strong alignment with 3M’s worldwide manufacturing and R&D ecosystem. Additionally, sourcing within the 3M group safeguards technical confdentiality, protects proprietary manufacturing processes, and ensures competitive and consistent pricing. The specialised nature of these materials and the concentration of technical capability within designated 3M facilities mean that external suppliers cannot replicate the required specifcations or provide equivalent products. As purchase orders can be issued as needed within this established global framework, the procurement model remains fexible while still benefting from operational alignment and commercial efciency. In view of these factors, seeking external competitive bids is generally not feasible for such materials or fnishedgoods.

Note 1:

Justification:

i. Income from contract research services:

The Company has entered into contract research agreement with 3M Company, USA for carrying out contract research activities. The Company’s research and development employees support research projects for the global 3M Group from time to time, based on need and availability of related domain expertise in the Company. The Company is compensated for related costs in connection with the provision of these services with a mark-up of 10%.

ii. Purchase and Sale of goods:

‘3M’ is a globally recognised brand, and the Company derives significant brand equity from the use of the 3M trade name. Group companies worldwide adhere to uniform quality standards, and transactions with the Parent Company, 3M Company, USA, help ensure consistency in product quality across markets. This provides assurance to customers in India and internationally regarding the reliability and performance of the Company’s offerings. Procurement from the Parent Company benefits from established relationships, advanced technological capabilities, and a deep understanding of the Company’s operational requirements, enabling efficient and cost-effective solutions. These transactions also provide access to specialised expertise, global industry knowledge and proprietary technologies, fostering operational synergies and strengthening overall business performance.Further, the Company permits its parent company to procure products manufactured by 3M India, helping optimise capacity and expand export opportunities within the broader 3M organisation.

iii. Recharge of Expenses In and Out:

Cost recharge in pertains to expected reimbursement of employee cost of foreign state employees possessing domain expertise, deputed to the Company from 3M Company USA, on cost to cost basis. Cost recharge out represents recharge of certain services provided by employees of the company to other affiliate entities of the 3M Group under the agreement with markup in line with transfer pricing principles.

iv. Purchase of Capital goods:

These purchases related to expected purchase of capital equipment to be used in manufacturing process, which carries 3M Intellectual Property protected specifications, design and manufacturing process.

v. Royalty Payments:

i. 3M Company, USA has granted the Company access to 3M Group’s synergies, state of art products and technologies, competencies and 3M and other 3M-owned brands which are critical and essential for the Company to carry out its business operations and maximise its growth and performance in an increasingly global and competitive business environment.
ii. The Intellectual Property agreement with 3M allows the Company access and rights to manufacture using the Parent Company’s licensed technologies, product portfolio and the 3M brand. 3M Company, USA and 3M Group have a broad portfolio of products across multiple technology platforms protected by Intellectual Property Rights. The Parent Company owns 49 technology platforms, which cover platforms such as adhesives, abrasives, ceramics, nanotechnology and several more. The Parent Company and its affiliates invested about USD 1.1 Billion in Research and Development in 2024. The consistent investment in R&D over the years helped produce 135,077 patents in the company’s history, and a steady stream of unique products for customers that are accessible to 3M India.
iii. Based on extensive longitudinal study on how brands drive revenue and create value, 3M was ranked among the top 100 global brands by Interbrand in 2025. Further, 3M Company, USA along with its global affiliates, is highly regarded in the business world as well as with stakeholders. The 3M Group has received several global accolades and recognitions. To name a few, 3M Company was recognised amongst:
50 Most Innovative Companies, by Boston Consulting Group.
Top 100 Global Innovators 2023 by Clarivate.
Brands That Matter 2023 by Fast Company.
World’s Most Trustworthy Companies 2023 by Newsweek.
Top 100 Global Leaders in Sustainable Innovation 2023, by LexisNexis.

The global recognition of the 3M brand, built over several years, has created strong marketplace value that the Company continues to benefit from. Leveraging the brand’s credibility and reputation has enabled the Company to attract customers, drive business growth, and successfully commercialise its innovative products.

Notice

iv. As a result of access to the use of the 3M brand, the Company has significantly increased its manufacturing footprint in India over the past several years. In fact, 63% of the incremental growth delivered over the last six years can be attributed to an increase in manufacturing activities.
v. As at March 31, 2014, locally manufactured products contributed 52.9% of total sales. The contribution of locally manufactured products increased to 59.4% of total sales as at March 31, 2025. During the same period, the Company’s profit before tax increased from 3.9% of sales in FY 13-14 to 17.4% of sales in FY 24-25. This represents a compounded growth rate in the value of profit before tax by 24.56%.

The Company has successfully enhanced its Profit Before Tax (PBT), driven by improved market penetration enabled through access to advanced technologies from its parent company. This strategic advantage is clearly reflected in both PBT and topline growth.

vi. Effective April 1, 2023, 3M India does not pay any royalties on trading sales and royalties are paid on sales of manufactured products only, on net sales value. This change in royalty arrangement aligned the royalty payment closely with the increase in the mix and sales of locally manufactured goods. Additionally, this benefits 3M India in the medium to long-term to increase the local manufacturing footprint and build sustainable competitive moats in the marketplace.
vii. Payment of Royalty to the Parent Company is proposed at 3.25% on sale of manufactured products, consistent with previous approvals. There has been no change in the royalty rate payable compared to the previous year. The current approval sought is for ` 110 Crores for FY 26-27, covering royalties for these products and services. No other Royalty payments are made to any other Related Parties.
viii. The Company has been consistently paying Dividends for the last 4 financial years.

S.No.	Particulars of the information	Information provided by the management
1.	Bidding or other process, if any, applied for choosing a party for sale, purchase or supply of goods or services.	The materials and components used in the Company’s product portfolio are highly specialised, proprietary, or manufactured only in designated global facilities within the 3M group. Certain products manufactured or sold by 3M India are defned in product specifcations in a way that requires the use of standard materials sourced exclusively from 3M group companies, and these materials cannot be procured from external parties. By sourcing directly from its parent or group entities, 3M India ensures access to standardised quality requirements, consistent compliance frameworks, and technical know-how that is not available from external suppliers. This approach further supports integrated global supply-chain planning, enabling timely delivery, seamless coordination, and strong alignment with 3M’s worldwide manufacturing and R&D ecosystem. Additionally, sourcing within the 3M group safeguards technical confdentiality, protects proprietary manufacturing processes, and ensures competitive and consistent pricing. The specialised nature of these materials and the concentration of technical capability within designated 3M facilities mean that external suppliers cannot replicate the required specifcations or provide equivalent products. As purchase orders can be issued as needed within this established global framework, the procurement model remains fexible while still benefting from operational alignment and commercial efciency. In view of these factors, seeking external competitive bids is generally not feasible for such materials or fnishedgoods.
2.	Basis of determination of price.	3M India procures semi-fnished goods from 3M Global manufacturing locations via 3M afliate entities. 3M Group has a centralized process for calculating transfer prices called Central Pricing of Inter-Company (CPIC). CPIC is used to determine prices of all goods between intercompany selling and purchasing entities. CPIC uses a combination of information from source of supply and buying entities purchasing from the source of supply to establish contract prices which are determined using a mark-up over the transfer cost (TC), intending to achieve a return which complies with the arm’s length principle. The pricing of fnished goods is based on the principle of arm’s length, relying on the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines, and other applicable transfer pricing rules and guidelines to each local countryin which 3M operates.
3.	In case of Trade advance (of upto 365 days or such period for which such advances are extended as per normal trade practice), if any, proposed to be extended to the related party in relation to the transaction, specify the following: a. Amount of Trade advance b. Amount of Trade advance c. Whether same is self-liquidating?	NA
