As required under Section 102(1) of the Companies Act, 2013, the following explanatory statement sets out all the material facts relating to the special business mentioned in this notice.
The Special Resolution of this Notice, has been proposed pursuant to the provisions of Sections 23(1), 42, 53, 62 and other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018 (‘SEBI ICDR Regulations’) and Securities & Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (‘SEBI LODR Regulations’), as amended from time to time to issue and allot upto 1,02,50,000 (One Crore Two Lakh Fifty Thousand) Equity shares of face value of Rs. 10/- each to the members of the Promoter Group of the Company. The said proposal has been considered and approved by the Audit Committee and Board of Directors of the Company in their respective meetings held on 9th February, 2023. The aforementioned approval of the Board is subject to approval of the shareholders and BSE Limited (‘BSE’).
It is to be noted that the issue of Equity Shares on a preferential basis, subject to compliance of the requirements under the SEBI LODR Regulations is exempted from the definition of ‘related party transaction’ under SEBI LODR Regulations. Therefore, the Preferential Issue is not a ‘related party transaction’ under the provisions of SEBI LODR Regulations and the approval of the shareholders as per the provisions of Regulation 23 of SEBI LODR Regulations is not required. However, in view of the requirements of Section 62 of the Companies Act, 2013 and Regulation 160 of SEBI ICDR Regulations, the approval of the shareholders through a special resolution is necessary for making a preferential issue of the shares.
