EXPLANATORY STATEMENT TO THE NOTICE CONVENING THE MEETING OF EQUITY SHAREHOLDERS OF HINDUSTAN UNILEVER LIMITED
1. This is a statement accompanying the Notice convening the meeting of equity shareholders of HUL, pursuant to an order dated June 11, 2025 passed by the Mumbai Bench of the Hon’ble National Company Law Tribunal (“ NCLT or “Tribunal ”) in the Company Application C.A.(CAA)/142(MB)2025 (“ Order ”), to be held on Tuesday, August 12, 2025 at 11:00 A.M. (IST) through VC/ OAVM means (“ Tribunal Convened Meeting ” or “ Meeting ”) for the purpose of considering, and if thought fit, approving, with or without modification, the Scheme of Arrangement amongst HUL, KWIL and their respective shareholders, pursuant to the provisions of Sections 230 to 232 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“ Act ”), and any other applicable provisions of the Act (including any statutory modification(s) or re-enactment thereof, for the time being in force) (“ Scheme ”).
2. In September 2024, the Board of Directors of HUL had constituted a committee of Independent Directors (“ ID Committee ”) to evaluate the prospects and way forward for HUL’s Ice Cream business pursuant to Unilever PLC’s (parent entity of HUL) announcement to separate its Ice Cream business globally. The ID Committee of HUL had undertaken a comprehensive review of the Ice Cream business. Based on the ID Committee’s recommendations, the Board of HUL, in its meeting dated October 23, 2024, decided to separate the Ice Cream business. Thereafter, the Board of HUL considered and evaluated different modes of separation of the Ice Cream business. After due consideration and based on the recommendations of the ID Committee, with a view to inter alia , unlock value for all the shareholders, on November 25, 2024, the Board of HUL had accorded its in-principle approval for the separation of the Ice Cream business by way of a demerger through an NCLT sanctioned scheme of arrangement into an independent listed entity. For the purposes of the proposed demerger of HUL’s Ice Cream business, KWIL was incorporated by HUL as its wholly owned subsidiary on January 10, 2025. Thereafter, the Audit Committee and ID Committee of HUL considered the rationale and benefits of the Scheme and recommended the Scheme to the Board of Directors of HUL. Based on the recommendations of the said Committees, the Board of Directors of HUL unanimously approved the Scheme at its meeting on January 22, 2025.
3. The Scheme provides, inter alia, for the following:
-
(a) the demerger of the Ice Cream Business Undertaking ( as defined in the Scheme ) of HUL to KWIL on a going concern basis and in consideration, the consequent issuance of the equity shares of KWIL to all the equity shareholders of HUL in accordance with the Share Entitlement Ratio ( as defined below ) (“ Demerger ”); and
-
(b) various other matters consequential or otherwise integrally connected therewith including, inter alia , the consequent reduction and cancellation of the existing shareholding of HUL in KWIL, pursuant to Sections 230 to 232 of the Act and other applicable provisions thereof read with Section 2(19AA) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (“ IT Act ”), and the SEBI Scheme Circular.
The salient features of the Scheme are given in paragraph 7 below and the detailed terms of the arrangement are covered in the Scheme, a copy of which is enclosed as Annexure 1 .
4. Rationale of the Scheme and the benefit of the Scheme as perceived by the Board of Directors of HUL:
-
4.1. The Board of HUL had undertaken a comprehensive review and had decided to separate the Ice Cream Business Undertaking ( as defined in the Scheme ) in view of its different operating model, including differentiated infrastructure for supply and distribution, capital allocation needs, distinct channel landscape and go-to-market strategy.
-
4.2. After due consideration, the Board of HUL has proposed to undertake the separation of the Ice Cream Business Undertaking ( as defined in the Scheme ) by way of this Scheme which contemplates the demerger of the Ice Cream Business Undertaking ( as defined in the Scheme ) to KWIL, to create an independent listed ice-cream company. This would be in the best interests of both HUL and KWIL, and their respective shareholders, creditors, employees and other stakeholders on account of the following:
12/528
-
(a) the Demerger will result in the separation of the Ice Cream Business Undertaking ( as defined in the Scheme ) from the Remaining Business ( as defined in the Scheme ), which will enable both the companies to sharpen focus on their respective businesses and strategies in pursuit of their respective growth and value creation models;
-
(b) the Ice Cream Business Undertaking ( as defined in the Scheme ) operates in an attractive highgrowth category and has built iconic brands such as ‘Kwality Wall’s’, ‘Cornetto’ and ‘Magnum’ and the Demerger would create a leading listed ice cream company in India, which will have a focused management with greater flexibility to deploy strategies suited to its distinctive operating model and market dynamics, to realise its full potential;
-
(c) KWIL will have ability to benefit from the portfolio, brand and innovation resources and technical expertise from the largest global ice cream business enabling it to keep winning in the market space;
-
(d) the Demerger will enable HUL to drive sharper focus in the business as it further accelerates its play in high-growth demand spaces, strengthening its future fit portfolio;
-
(e) the Demerger would unlock value for all shareholders of HUL and give them the flexibility to stay invested in the growth journey of the Ice Cream Business Undertaking ( as defined in the Scheme ); and

Strengthening cold chain infrastructure in the country will further streamline distribution, helping brands reach wider audiences efficiently and drive growth.
-
(ii) HUL’s Ice Cream business brings a rich heritage of over 30 years in India and post Demerger, KWIL is poised to become the leading listed Ice Cream company, with a robust portfolio comprising of iconic brands such as ‘ Kwality Wall’s ’, ‘ Cornetto ’ and ‘ Magnum ’.
-
(iii) the Demerger will enable HUL and KWIL to sharpen focus on their respective businesses and strategies in pursuit of their respective growth and value creation models.
-
(iv) KWIL will have a focused management with greater flexibility to deploy strategies suited to its distinctive operating model and market dynamics, to realise its full potential.
-

-
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid Special Purpose Financial Statements, are prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of preparation as described in Note 1 to these Special Purpose Financial Statements.
Basis for Opinion
- We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 (‘the Act). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the “Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Special Purpose Financial Statements” section of our report.

Kwality Wall’s (India) Limited Independent Auditor’s Report on the Special Purpose Financial Statements of Kwality Wall’s (India) Limited for the period from 10 January 2025 to 31 March 2025
Emphasis of Matter - Basis of Preparation and Restriction on Distribution and Use
- We draw attention to Note 1 to the accompanying Special Purpose Financial Statements, which describes the basis of its preparation. These Special Purpose Financial Statements have been prepared by the Company’s management in accordance with special purpose framework, solely to assist the management of Company for onward submission of these Special Purpose Financial Statements to National Company Law Tribunal and other regulatory authorities as may be required in connection with the Draft Scheme of Arrangement amongst the Company, Hindustan Unilever Limited (the ‘Demerged Company’), and their respective shareholders (the ‘Draft Scheme’) for transfer of the Ice Cream Business Undertaking from the Demerged Company into the Company and therefore, these Special Purpose Financial Statements may not be suitable for any other purpose. This report is issued solely for the aforementioned purpose and accordingly, should not be used, referred to or distributed for any other purpose or to any other party without our prior written consent. Further, we do not accept or assume any liability or any duty of care for any other purpose for which or to any other person to whom this report is shown or into whose hands it may come without our prior consent in writing. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Responsibilities of Management for the Special Purpose Financial Statements
-
The accompanying Special Purpose Financial Statements have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors. The Company's Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of these Special Purpose Financial Statements in accordance with the basis of preparation as described in Note 1 to Special Purpose Financial Statements including determining that such basis of preparation is acceptable in the circumstances. This responsibility also includes design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Special Purpose Financial Statements in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of preparation as specified in aforementioned Note 1 of the accompanying Special Purpose Financial Statements and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
-
In preparing the Special Purpose Financial Statements, the Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the company to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Special Purpose Financial Statements
-
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Special Purpose Financial Statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Special Purpose Financial Statements.
-
As part of an audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143(10) of the Act, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Special Purpose Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls;

Dear Sirs/ Madam,
Statutory Auditors clarification with respect to the queries from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (‘SEBI’) in relation to the Scheme of Arrangement
Walker Chandiok & Co LLP (‘we’ or ‘us’), the statutory auditors of Kwality Wall’s (India) Limited (‘Resulting Company’ or ‘Company’) have been requested to issue a clarification in response to one of the queries received by Hindustan Unilever Limited (‘the Demerged Company’) from the Securities Exchange Board of India (‘SEBI’) vide email dated 4 April 2025 (‘SEBI Communication’) with respect to the accounting treatment prescribed in the draft Scheme of Arrangement between the Demerged Company, the Resulting Company and their respective shareholders (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Draft Scheme’) as approved by the Board of Directors of the Demerged Company and Resulting Company in their respective meetings held on 22 January 2025.
Pursuant to the requirements of Sections 230 to 232 of the Companies Act, 2013 and the SEBI Master Circular No. SEBI/HO/CFD/POD-2/P/CIR/2023/93, we had issued the accompanying certificate dated 22 January 2025 bearing UDIN: 25139536BMONLG2283 on the prescribed accounting treatment in the books of the Resulting Company in accordance with the Guidance Note on Reports or Certificates for Special Purposes (Revised 2016) (hereinafter referred to as ‘the Certificate’). Based on our examination of the Draft Scheme and according to information and explanation given to us, along with the representations provided by the management of the Company, the proposed demerger in substance is viewed as a capital re-organisation as per generally accepted accounting principles. There is no explicit guidance available for accounting treatment in respect of the aforesaid transaction under any Ind AS notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. Therefore, by virtue of paragraphs 10 to 12 of Ind AS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, the management has applied its judgment in developing and applying the proposed accounting policy as specified in clause 11.2 of the Draft Scheme using the Pooling of Interest method by drawing an analogy from Appendix C to Ind AS 103 and considering other generally accepted accounting principles, which in our view, is in compliance with the applicable accounting standards and other generally accepted accounting principles in India as opined by us in the Certificate.

Kwality Wall's (India) Limited Independent Auditor’s Certificate on the Statement of financial information as at and for the nine months period ended 31 December 2024 of Kwality Wall's (India) Limited (pre and post demerger)
- The unaudited special purpose carved-out interim financial information of Demerged Undertaking as at and for the nine months period ended 31 December 2024, referred to in paragraph 5 above, has been reviewed by us, on which we have issued an unmodified conclusion vide our review report dated 22 January 2025.
Our review of the aforementioned special purpose financial information of the Demerged Undertaking was conducted in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagement (SRE) 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (‘the ICAI’). This Standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the financial information is free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of the company personnel and applying analytical and other review procedures applied to the financial data and thus, provides less assurance than an audit.
