EXPLANATORY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 102 OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 2013

Item No.1

The Company believes that equity-based compensation plans are an effective tool to reward the Company’s employee talent. The Company intends to implement an Employee Stock Option Plan viz. ‘Bajel Projects Limited Employee Stock Option Plan – 2024’ (the “ESOP 2024” / “Scheme”) for the eligible employees of the Company.

Based on the recommendations and approval of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee (“NRC”) and the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company at their

respective meetings held on April 29, 2024, a proposal for adoption of the ESOP 2024 is being placed before the Members of the Company for approval by way of special resolution in terms of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Share Based Employee Benefits and Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021, as amended (“SEBI SBEB & SE Regulations”).

The purpose of the Scheme is to attract, retain and motivate the employees of the Company whose present and potential contributions are important for the success of the Company. The Company views employee stock option plan as a long-term incentive tool that would assist in aligning employees’ interest with that of the Company’s and enable the employees not only to become co-owners, but also to create wealth out of such ownership in future. The Scheme shall be administered by the NRC.

The Resolution contained in Item no. 1 seeks to obtain the member’s approval to authorize the Board (or any person authorised by the Board) in accordance with the Scheme to create, issue, offer and allot shares, from time to time, to the employees of the Company under the Scheme and undertake such action as may be necessary for the administration of the Options.

The existing NRC shall act as Compensation Committee for the administration and implementation of Scheme in terms of SEBI SBEB Regulations.

All questions of interpretation of the Scheme or any Option under the Scheme shall be determined by the NRC and such determination shall be final and binding upon all persons having an interest in the Scheme or in any Options issued thereunder.

Particulars of disclosures as required under Rule 12 of the Companies (Share Capital and Debentures) Rules, 2014 and SEBI SBEB & SE Regulations and circulars issued by SEBI are given below:

  • a) Brief description of the Scheme: The Scheme proposes grant of stock options (“Options”) to the employees / directors of the Company that are eligible under the Scheme (“Eligible Employees”).

After vesting of Options, the Eligible Employees earn a right, but not an obligation, to exercise the vested Options within the exercise period and subscribe to the equity shares of the Company subject to compliance with the requirements of the Scheme including payment of exercise price and satisfaction of any tax obligation arising thereon.

The liability of paying taxes, if any, in respect of the Options granted pursuant to the Scheme and the Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the Options shall be on the Option Grantee and / or the Company, in such cases where the Company decides to pay on behalf of the Option Grantee, it shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 read with rules issued thereunder as applicable to eligible employees of the Company.

The Company shall have the right to deduct from the Option Grantee’s salary or recover any of the Option Grantee’s tax obligations arising in connection with the transactions in respect of the Options or Shares acquired upon the exercise thereof.

The SEBI SBEB Regulations require that in case of any corporate action(s) such as rights issue, bonus issue, merger and sale of division and others, a fair and reasonable adjustment needs to be made to the Options granted. In this regard, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee shall adjust the number and exercise price of the Options granted in such a manner that the total value of the Options granted under the Scheme remain the same after any such corporate action.
