2. Whether
the
transaction
would fall within
related
party
transactions?
If yes, whether
the same is done
at “arm’s length”
The Transferor Companies are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Transferee Company
and are therefore related parties to the Transferee Company. However, in view of the
General Circular No. 30/2014 dated July 17, 2014 issued by Ministry of Corporate
Affairs, the said transaction, being a scheme of amalgamation under the Companies
Act, 2013 provisions of Section 188 of the Act are not applicable.
Further, pursuant to Regulation 23(5)(b) of the SEBI Listing Regulations, the
provisions relating to related party transactions are not applicable to transactions
entered into between a holding company and its wholly-owned subsidiary.
3. Area of business
of the entity(ies)
DIL is the largest franchisee of Yum Brands in India and is among the largest operators
of chain quick service restaurants (QSR) in India, on a non-exclusive basis, and
operates more than 2,000 stores across more than 280 cities in India, Nigeria, Nepal
and Thailand, as of December 31, 2025. In addition, DIL is the sole franchisee for Costa
Coffee, Tea Live, New York Fries and Sanook Kitchen in India. DIL also owns Biryani
By Kilo, Goila Butter Chicken and Vaango brands.

Sky Gate along Blackvelvet and Say Chefs own and operate a chain of more than 100
outlets (including Dine-in and Cloud Kitchens) in 40+ cities, including Delhi NCR,
Mumbai, Kolkata and Bengaluru. Sky Gate is amongst the first ones to introduce the
‘Handi Biryani’ concept and deliver freshly prepared biryani.
4. Rationale
for
amalgamation/
merger
The Board of Directors of the respective companies have resolved to amalgamate the
Transferor Companies with and into the Transferee Company with the objectives of
achieving better business synergies and optimum utilization of resources/ assets,
reduction in operational cost and corporate tiers and overall increase in efficiency to
maximize value creation for stakeholders.
5. In case of cash
consideration

amount
or
otherwise share
exchange ratio
Post sanction of the Scheme, no shares would be issued by the Company, since the
Transferor Companies are direct and/ or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of the
Company. Since the Scheme is not proposing to issue any fresh shares to the
shareholders of the Transferor Companies, no Share Entitlement Ratio/ Valuation
Report would be required.
6. Brief details of
change
in
shareholding
pattern (if any) of
listed entity
The shareholding pattern of the Company remains unchanged pursuant to this
Scheme.
