It may be noted that as per the Regulation 23 (1) of Listing Regulations, a transaction with a related party shall be considered material if the transaction(s) to be entered into individually or taken together with previous transactions during a financial year, exceeds Rs.1,000 Crore or ten per cent of the annual consolidated turnover of the listed entity as per the last audited financial statements of the listed entity, whichever is lower. Further, all Material Related Party Transactions require prior approval of the Members through a Resolution and no related party shall vote to approve such Resolution whether an entity is a related party to the particular transaction or not.

The total value of the transaction with BPCL for purchase / sale/ rendering of services etc. is estimated to be Rs. 2,822 Crores for the Financial Year 2025-26 and this amount exceeds the threshold limit of Rs.1,000 Crores, one of the criteria prescribed above in the definition of Material Related Party Transactions and therefore it is a Material Related Party Transaction.

The estimated total value of transactions with BPCL during Financial Year 2024-25 is expected to remain within the shareholders’ approved limit of Rs. 2,548 Crores. The estimated value of transactions during Financial Year 2025-26 is Rs. 2,822 Crores. This increase in estimated value of transactions for Financial Year 2025-26 vis-à-vis previous Financial Year is mainly due to expected increase in purchase quantity as well as price of RLNG gas and other transactions.
