EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
(Pursuant to the provisions of Section 102 and Section 110 of the Act and SEBI Listing Regulations)
Item No 1:
As required under Section 102 of the Companies Act, 2013, and applicable provisions of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, this Explanatory Statement sets out all material facts relating to the Ordinary Resolution for approving material Related Party Transactions (RPTs) with Carraro Drive Tech Italia S.p.A. (‘ CDTI ’). CDTI is an Italy-based company operating as a leader in the driveline business within the Carraro Group, engaging in the manufacturing and selling of axles, clutches, transmissions, drives, and related components. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of Carraro S.p.A., which is the ultimate parent company of the Company, and thus forms part of the Company’s Promoter Group.
In connection with the said resolution, and based on the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors of the Company, at its meeting held on February 11, 2026 passed a board resolution subject to the approval of members seeking omnibus approval to enter into various transactions with CDTI as and when required, for a maximum period of one financial year, i.e. FY 2026-27. The proposed transactions involve the sale of goods such as agricultural and construction equipment transmissions, axles, gears, and allied components, along with the purchase of goods (including ECUs, brakes, clutches, Double-U joints, switches, and various consumables). Additionally, the transactions cover corporate service charges for availing Sales & Marketing support, Global Sourcing and Supply Chain services as well as the payment of warranty charges in relation to products sold to CDTI.
Further, during the last FY 2024-25 total value of transactions undertaken by the Company with the CDTI during the last financial year was aggregating to INR 5,689.22 million and the transaction value in the current financial year up to Q3 FY 2025-26 is aggregating to INR 5,952.01 million. Furthermore, the total estimated value of these proposed transactions being placed for approval is INR 10,129.49 million and this amount constitutes 56.04% of the Company’s annual consolidated turnover for the immediately preceding financial year ended March 31, 2025, and renders the proposed transaction for FY 2026-27, as material RPT.
In accordance with the Para 5 (2) (c) of the RPT Industry Standards dated June 26, 2025 the Audit Committee of the Company has reviewed the certificate issued by the Managing Director and Whole-time Director & Chief Financial Officer confirming that the terms and conditions of the proposed material RPTs are in the interest of the Company and the elaboration provided under Sr. no. 6 of Table A(5) of the minimum information placed before the audit committee and part of this explanatory statement, renders the material RPTs including its terms and conditions, favourable to the Company.
Although the transaction is undertaken in the ordinary course of business and on an arm’s length basis, but the total value of transaction exceeds the materiality threshold prescribed
