EXPLANATORY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 102 OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 2013 AND RULES RELATED THERETO FORMING PART OF THE NOTICE
Item No.1 and 2
At present, the equity shares of the Company are listed on National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) and BSE Limited. The face value of the equity share of the Company is Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten Only). In order to enhance the liquidity in the capital market, to widen shareholder base and to make the shares affordable to small investors, the Board of Directors in their meeting held on 11th February 2020 have considered it desirable to sub-divide / split of the existing face value of the equity shares of the Company from the present Rs.10/- each fully paid-up per equity share into five (5) equity shares of Rs.2/- each fully paid-up. Stock split would serve the purpose of raising liquidity of the shares without increasing the Company's equity servicing burden (as overall equity capital remains the same). Shareholders attention is also invited to the fact that in view of the foregoing, the existing Capital Clause V of the Memorandum of Association of the Company also need relevant amendment to give effect to the sub-division of equity shares.
None of the Directors, Key Managerial Personnel of the Company or their relative is in anyway concerned or interested in the proposed resolution except to the extent of their shareholding in the Company. Accordingly, the Board recommends passing of the resolutions set out at Item No 1 & 2 for approval of the Members through postal ballot/ e-voting.
