EXPLANATORY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 102 OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 2013
The following Explanatory Statement relating to the accompanying Notice sets out all material facts relating to the business mentioned in the Notice as specified under Section 102 (1) of the Companies Act, 2013:
Item No. 1: To authorise for further Issuance of Securities by material subsidiary i.e., M/s ARAPL Raas Private Limited and Consequent Reduction of Shareholding of the company to less than or equal to fifty percent
The Company currently holds 83.54% (74.56% on fully diluted basis) equity stake in Subsidiary ARAPL RaaS Private Limited
The subsidiary proposes to raise funds by issuance of securities to the proposed allottee i.e., Sai Green Projects Private Limited for an amount of INR 48 crore (Rupees Forty-Eight Crores), in one or more tranches, to support its business expansion and growth plans.
Pursuant to the proposed investment, the Company’s shareholding in the subsidiary will be diluted from 83.54% (74.56% on fully diluted basis) to 42.50% (on fully diluted basis) resulting in:
- reduction of shareholding below 50%, and
- cessation of control over the subsidiary.
Accordingly, the ARAPL Raas Private Limited may cease to be a subsidiary and may be classified as an associate company.
As per Regulation 24(5) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, (“SEBI LODR”) provides that no company shall dispose-off shares in its material subsidiary (either on its own or together with other subsidiaries) to less than or equal to fifty percent or cease the exercise of control over the subsidiary without passing a special resolution in its general meeting, except in cases where such divestment is made under a scheme of arrangement duly approved by a Court/ National Company Law Tribunal.
Although, the Company is not disposing off any shares out of its existing shareholding in the Material Subsidiary, however, further issue of securities by ARAPL RaaS Private Limited, as mentioned herein above, may result in dilution of the Company's shareholding in the Material Subsidiary to less than fifty percent (50%). The proposed issue of the ARAPL RaaS Private Limited, for an amount of INR 48 crore (Rupees Forty-Eight Crores), in one or more tranches, if subscribed fully, will result in dilution of the shareholding of your company from the present 83.54% (74.56% on fully diluted basis) to 42.50% (on fully diluted basis) (approximately). The proposed issue by ARAPL RaaS Private Limited is being contemplated to be made at the fair value determined by a registered valuer in terms of applicable legal provisions.
Accordingly, the ARAPL Raas Private Limited may cease to be a subsidiary and may be classified as an associate company.
The Board of Directors accordingly recommends passing of the proposed resolution in item no. 01 as a Special Resolution.
None of the Directors/Key Managerial Personnel of the Company/their relatives are in any way, concerned or interested, financially or otherwise in the Special Resolution set out except to the extent to their shareholding in the Company, if any.
Item No. 2: To consider and approve Material Related Party Transactions for the Financial Year 2026-27 as per Regulation 23 of SEBI (LODR) Regulations:
