- iii. Special Resolution dated June 18, 2025, passed through Postal Ballot, approved the appointment of Mr. Sanjay Sachdeva (DIN: 11017868) as Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the remuneration payable to him.
The Members had also authorised the Board of Directors to alter and vary the terms and conditions of their respective appointments, including the remuneration and increments payable to them from time to time, subject to such remuneration being within the limits specified under Section 197 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") and the SEBI Listing Regulations.
Section 197(1) of the Act provides that the total managerial remuneration payable by a public company to all its directors, including the Managing Director, Whole-time Directors and its Manager, in respect of any financial year, shall not exceed eleven percent (11%) of the net profits of the company for that financial year, computed in the manner laid down under Section 198 of the Act, except that the remuneration of the directors shall not be deducted from the gross profits. Within this overall ceiling, remuneration payable to the Managing Director and Whole-time Directors shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the net profits for each such director, and in case there is more than one such director, the aggregate shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the net profits. Remuneration payable to directors who are neither Managing Directors nor Whole-time Directors shall not exceed one percent (1%) of the net profits, if the company has a Managing Director, Whole-time Director or Manager, and three percent (3%) in any other case.
Where a company has no profits or its profits are inadequate in any financial year, Section 197 read with Schedule V of the Act provides that remuneration may be paid to its Managing Director, Whole-time Director or Manager in accordance with the provisions of Schedule V, without the requirement of any Central Government approval. Schedule V prescribes the maximum permissible remuneration payable as minimum remuneration in such cases, based on the effective capital of the company. The effective capital of the Company as at March 31, 2025, computed in the manner prescribed under Schedule V of the Act, is ₹1,494.66 crore, on the basis of which the maximum permissible remuneration under Schedule V is ₹132.45 lakhs per annum for each managerial person. For reference, the effective capital of the Company as at December 31, 2025, is ₹1,378.32 crore, on the basis of which the maximum permissible remuneration would be ₹131.28 lakhs per annum for each managerial person. Where the remuneration paid or payable exceeds the limits under Schedule V, approval of the Members by way of a Special Resolution is required, failing which such excess remuneration is liable to be refunded to the Company in accordance with Sections 197(9) and 197(10) of the Act. It may be noted that where such a Special Resolution is passed, Schedule V does not prescribe any upper ceiling on the quantum of remuneration that may be so approved.
Section 197(3) of the Act provides that in a year of no profits or inadequate profits, no remuneration shall be paid to directors
except in accordance with Schedule V. Pursuant to Section 197(9), any director who draws remuneration in excess of prescribed limits or without requisite approval shall refund such sum to the Company within two years, and shall hold it in trust for the Company until refunded. Further, under Section 197(10), the Company shall not waive recovery of any such refundable sum unless approved by the Members by Special Resolution within two years from the date the sum becomes refundable.
In addition to the above, the SEBI Listing Regulations impose the following specific obligations on listed companies in relation to director remuneration. Under Regulation 17(6)(ca), in the event of absence or inadequacy of profits in any financial year, any remuneration paid to Executive Directors shall require approval of the Members by Special Resolution. This provision operates independently of and in addition to the requirements under Section 197 read with Schedule V of the Act, and makes Member approval by Special Resolution mandatory for listed entities regardless of whether remuneration falls within or exceeds Schedule V limits. Under Regulation 17(6)(e), the fees or compensation payable to Executive Directors who are promoters or members of the promoter group shall be subject to Member approval by Special Resolution in each financial year, if (i) the annual remuneration payable to such Executive Director exceeds ₹5 (five) crore or two and a half percent (2.5%) of the net profits of the listed entity, whichever is higher; or (ii) where there is more than one such director, the aggregate annual remuneration payable to all such directors exceeds five percent (5%) of the net profits of the listed entity. This requirement applies irrespective of whether the company has adequate profits, and accordingly both triggers under Regulation 17(6)(e)(i) and 17(6)(e)(ii) are potentially applicable to the Company for FY 2025-26 given that Mr. Shekhar Bajaj and Ms. Pooja Anant Bajaj are both promoter or promoter group Executive Directors of the Company.
It may be noted that sitting fees payable to Non-Executive and Independent Directors are not linked to the profitability of the Company and are payable regardless of profit levels. However, commission payable to Non-Executive and Independent Directors, being linked to net profits under Section 197(5) of the Act, is directly affected by the inadequacy of profits and is therefore included within the scope of this resolution.
The remuneration paid or payable to Executive, Non-Executive and Independent Directors, is being treated as minimum remuneration for FY 2025-26 in accordance with Schedule V of the Act.
The detailed break-up of remuneration components, reasons for loss or inadequate profits, steps taken or proposed to be taken for improvement, expected increase in productivity and profits in measurable terms, and other Schedule V disclosures form part of this Notice as “Annexure 2.”
The annual remuneration of Mr. Shekhar Bajaj, Executive Chairman, and Ms. Pooja Anant Bajaj, Executive Director, being promoter Executive Directors of the Company, for FY 2025-26, is likely to exceed the threshold of ₹5 (five) crore or two and a half

| III. | Other Information | |
| 1. | Reasons for loss or inadequate profts |
During FY 2025-26, the Company's fnancial performance has been materially impacted by a signifcant decline in revenue and margins in its Consumer Products vertical, which witnessed a revenue decline of twenty-fve percent (25%) in Q3 FY 2025- 26. This decline was primarily on account of deliberate channel inventory normalisation measures undertaken in response to elevated inventory levels that had accumulated in the trade channel, arising from the underperformance of summer-related product categories — including air coolers and other temperature-linked products — which typically contribute twenty to twenty-fve percent (20%-25%) of Consumer Products revenue in a normal year but delivered approximately half of their expected contribution during the year. A second summer season, which typically provides a supplementary liquidation window, also did not materialise as expected. The consequent prioritisation of secondary oftake over primary billing resulted in a sharp decline in primary sales, negative EBIT margins in the Consumer Products vertical due to operating deleverage, and additional margin pressure from promotional expenditure incurred to facilitate trade-level inventory liquidation. In contrast, the Lighting Solutions vertical delivered revenue growth of nine percent (9%) and EBIT margins of approximately seven percent (7%) in Q3 FY 2025-26, as compared to two percent (2%) in the corresponding prior period. However, this was insuficient to ofset the impact of the decline in Consumer Products on the overall fnancial performance of the Company. |
| 2. | Steps taken or proposed to be taken for improvement |
The Company has undertaken and is continuing to implement the following measures: • Channel restructuring:Transition from a volume-led primary billing model to a secondary oftake-led execution model to align primary sales with actual consumer demand, resulting in a reduction of channel inventory levels by approximately thirty percent (30%) in terms of number of days in the Consumer Products vertical. • Price increases:Price increases of two percent (2%) to fve percent (5%) announced with efect from February 1, 2026, to cover the bulk of commodity infation, supplemented by concurrent value engineering and value addition initiatives. |

| • Cost rationalisation:Comprehensive review and corrective actions across logistics costs, variable cost elements including product demonstration expenses, customer service expenses and trade schemes, and tighter control over fxed costs. Capital expenditure and innovation investments are being evaluated more stringently to ensure judicious deployment and superior returns. • Distribution optimisation:Refnement of the distribution model to align coverage frequency and investment with the revenue potential of each outlet, improving overall distribution eficiency and return on investment. • Portfolio expansion:Entry into adjacent categories within the Lighting Solutions vertical, including Switchgear (Q2 FY 2025-26), Solar Solutions (Q3 FY 2025-26) and Wires (February 2026), to build an integrated portfolio leveraging the Company's brand strength and distribution reach for long-term sustainable growth. |
||
|---|---|---|
| 3. | Expected increase in productivity and profts in measurable terms |
The channel inventory normalisation process is expected to be substantially complete within the next few quarters, following which primary sales are expected to more accurately refect consumer demand, improving revenue quality and margin predictability. Management has stated that a meaningful recovery in Consumer Products revenue and margins is anticipated from FY 2026-27 onwards, supported by the progressive accrual of benefts from cost rationalisation measures across logistics, fxed costs and variable costs. The price increases efective February 1, 2026 are expected to cover the bulk of near-term commodity infation impact. The Company has also demonstrated early improvement in its liquidity position, having generated operating cash fow of ₹211 crore in Q3 FY 2025-26 and ending the period with cash and cash equivalents of ₹620 crore, providing adequate fnancial fexibility for judicious deployment of growth capital. |
