For more than 200 years now, the Group has proudly borne the name of its founder, John Cockerill hidden in the acronym CMI, where 'C' means Cockerill. There are currently hundreds of different companies and organizations in the world with this acronym which, over the years, has become too impersonal. In order to reflect the uniqueness of over 200 years of the Group, the identity of the Group has been changed to John Cockerill.
In view of the change of the Group identity, the name of the Company is proposed to be changed from "CMI FPE Limited" to "John Cockerill India Limited" to bring in more visibility of the Group of which the Company is a part.
The Board of Directors vide circular resolution had approved the change of name of the Company subject to the availability of the name from Central Registration Centre (CRC), Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). The new name has been made available to the Company by the CRC of MCA vide its letter dated January 30, 2020. The availability of the name is for a period of 60 days from the date of communication and hence it is necessary to take immediate steps on receipt of the availability of the name.
The Companies Act, 2013 requires the Company to obtain the approval of the members for change of name by way of Special Resolution.
The proposed change of name of the Company will be effected on obtaining requisite approval from BSE Limited where equity shares of your Company are listed and on complying with the applicable provisions of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
By virtue of the above change in the name of the Company, it is required to amend its Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association accordingly.
As per the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, approval of the members of the Company is required by way of passing a Special Resolution; therefore the Board recommends the resolution at item No. 1 for approval of the members of the Company by way of a Special Resolution.

The Board of Directors of the Company at its meeting held on February 7, 2020 decided that taking into consideration the implementation of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act"), it would be in the best interest of the Company to wholly replace the existing Articles of Association by a new set of Articles of Association to be in line with the Companies Act, 2013.
It is thus necessary to adopt a new set of Articles of Association in place of existing Articles of Association of the Company, to be consistent with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 including Rules made thereunder. Hence the Board of Directors proposed to adopt a new set of Articles of Association in place of existing Articles of Association of the Company and seek members' approval for the same.
A copy of the proposed set of new Articles of Association of the Company would be available for inspection by the members at the Registered Office of the Company during the office hours on all working days (except Saturdays, Sundays and National Holidays) from 11.00 am to 4.00 pm till March 17, 2020.
