Appointment of Mr. Siddhartha Lal as the Executive Chairman of the Company (in the capacity of Whole-Time Director) and revision in remuneration

Mr. Siddhartha Lal is one of the promoters of the Company and has been associated with the Company from the last 25 years, initially as CEO of Royal Enfield and from 2006 onwards as the Managing Director of Eicher Motors Limited. During this period, he also served at various leadership positions at VE Commercial Vehicles Limited (VECV), Company’s joint venture with AB Volvo, notably as VECV’s Managing Director from May 2008 to October 2016, and Chairman from October 31, 2012 to May 2, 2017 and from April 15, 2020 to May 9, 2023. He is still a member of the Board of VECV in the capacity of a Non Executive Director.

Over these years, Mr. Siddhartha Lal has been instrumental in scripting the phenomenal growth and global success of the Company. Eicher Motors Limited is one of the leading automotive companies in India with a consistent track record of growth, best in class profitability and a very strong balance sheet, enabling the company to withstand unforeseen challenges such as covid-19 and global supply-chain disruptions during 2020 and 2021 and allows the company to continue to invest in its long term plans. Under the leadership of Mr. Siddhartha Lal, Royal Enfield pioneered the growth of the leisure motorcycle segment in India, and today, is the leading premium motorcycle brand in the country with more than 86% market share (as December 2024) in the above 250cc segment. Mr. Siddhartha Lal moved to the United Kingdom in 2015 to drive the Company’s ambition of becoming the first global premium consumer brand to emerge from India. There he has directly supervised the product strategy and international expansion plans of the Company.

Over the last 15 years, the Company has significantly expanded its product portfolio by adding new motorcycle models and introducing a few niche products to meet specific customer requirements. Many Royal Enfield motorcycles have gone to become class-leading in their space, resulting in Royal Enfield becoming the largest mid-size (250cc to 750cc) motorcycle brand in the world. Alongside, the Company has established an unprecedented ecosystem that delivers authentic experiences and propels riders to pursue “Pure Motorcycling”. These include an exclusive range of premium apparel and accessories, retail and service network, and globally held community rides and events that enhance connect with motorcycle enthusiasts.

The Company’s joint venture with Volvo Group, VE Commercial Vehicles Limited (VECV), has scripted a similar success story since its inception in 2008 and gained market share in all segments of the commercial vehicle industry in India. VECV is a multi-brand, multi-division company comprising a complete range of Eicher Trucks and Buses, Volvo Buses, exclusive distribution of Volvo Trucks in India, engine manufacturing and export hub for Volvo Group, non-automotive engines and Eicher component business. VECV is exporting to over

40 countries and is being recognised as an industry leader in driving modernization in commercial transportation in India and the developing world.

Profile of Mr. Siddhartha Lal:

Siddhartha Lal is the Executive Chairman of Eicher Motors Limited (EML) and also serves as Non Executive Director on the Board of VE Commercial Vehicles Limited (VECV), EML’s material subsidiary and a joint venture with Sweden’s AB Volvo.

Siddhartha joined Eicher Group in 1999 and has since played an instrumental role in reviving the Royal Enfield brand, steering it to become a global leader in the middleweight motorcycle segment (250 cc - 750 cc). He has been deeply involved in the strategic realignment of Royal Enfield’s product portfolio as well as shaping the brand and the business over the last 25 years, which led to its phenomenal global success. The resurgence of Royal Enfield in the early 2000s, and the position it holds today in the global middleweight motorcycle segment, is an outcome of the razor-sharp focus and patient nurturing of the business for more than two decades.

He is also a member of the Board of Directors of VE Commercial Vehicles and had a significant part in setting up VECV. The joint venture company manufactures and distributes Eicher trucks globally, and assembles and distributes Volvo trucks and buses in India. His close engagement with the commercial vehicle business over the past two decades has resulted in VECV emerging as a leading, and fast growing commercial vehicle player in the industry.

For the past 25 years, Siddhartha has been at the helm of EML in various capacities, shaping strategy and defining the long-term growth charter for both Royal Enfield and VE Commercial Vehicles. Siddhartha’s strategic and astute long term approach to business has greatly strengthened stakeholders trust and involvement in EML. This has resulted in the emergence of a robust and formidable organization that is strongly rooted in its foundations, and at the same time intelligently diversifying to cater to the aspirations of a global consumer.

Appointment of Mr. Govindarajan Balakrishnan (DIN: 03093035) as the Managing Director of the Company and revision in remuneration

Mr. Govindarajan Balakrishnan, a seasoned professional in the automotive industry with over 34 years of experience, has dedicated 24 of these years to Eicher Group, leading the organisation at various stages through several critical projects. He joined the Board of the Company in August 2021 as Executive Director (Whole Time Director) and was appointed as Chief Executive Officer-Royal Enfield in May 2022.

Before joining the Board in August 2021, Mr Govindarajan, as Chief Operating Officer (since 2013) and as a key member of the Company’s management team, has been instrumental in conceptualising and executing the key strategic projects for growth of the organisation. His exceptional contributions include Capacity ramp-up, support to international expansion including setting up CKD operations and pathbreaking improvement in quality. He was actively involved in ramping up Royal Enfield’s production capacity multifold and also spearheaded the establishment of two new world class manufacturing plants at Oragadam and Vallam Vadagal near Chennai. He has also been instrumental in the revamp of the

entire supply chain, implementing effective cost management strategies and creating a backend organisation which is very agile and ready for the next stage of growth for Royal Enfield. Under the leadership of Mr. Govindarajan, Royal Enfield established two Technology centres in Leicestershire, United Kingdom and in Chennai, India.

During the last 3+ years since he took over as Whole Time Director and Chief Executive Officer-Royal Enfield, the Company has made tremendous progress on all fronts including the following:

  • b) Electric Vehicle: The Company has built a product and technology roadmap for Electric Vehicles, invested heavily towards building Electric Vehicles design and manufacturing capabilities with 200+ engineers in India and the United Kingdom and launched its electric vehicle brand Flying Flea in November 2024 and unveiled its first fully electric motorcycle meant for agile, exciting, and accessible city+ mobility “Flying Flea C6”.

  • c) Sales Volume: Consecutively in the year 2022-23 and 2023-24, the Company has recorded its best ever motorcycle sales volumes despite several formidable European and American brands entering the Indian market in partnership with Indian OEMs. The non motorcycle business sales (spares, service accessories and apparel) are also at an all time high.

  • d) New Initiatives: The Company has started new initiatives of REOWN (Company operated, pre-owned motorcycle business), Assured Buyback (The programme offers buyers facilities like flexible tenures, lower EMIs and guaranteed buyback to reduce cost of ownership) and Rentals (a unique partnership with motorcycle rental operators to enable easy and instant access to Royal Enfield motorcycles to travellers/ riders). All these initiatives have shown good traction in the market.

  • e) Focus on International Business: With focus on international operations, the Company has set up new completely knocked down (CKD) facilities in Brazil (2022), Nepal (2023) and Bangladesh (2024). In 2024, the Company also set up its first standalone CKD plant in the global market outside India (in Thailand). The Company now has six (6) CKD facilities around the world in Argentina, Colombia, Brazil, Nepal, Bangladesh and Thailand.

  • f) Sustainability: The Company has made significant progress towards Green business operations leading to net water positive, zero waste discharge and cleaner operations. The Company is now ranked among the
