sum required for implementing the Bonus Issue of ₹ 13,30,00,000/- (based on the estimated number of bonus shares) out of free reserves including general reserve and/or retained earnings of the Company, as may be considered appropriate.

Accordingly, approval of members is sought for passing the ordinary resolution set out at Item No. 1 of this Postal Ballot Notice.

Item No. 2

It is informed to the Members that the Company has been making investments, giving loans and guarantees to and providing security in connection with loans to various persons and bodies corporate (including its subsidiary) from time to time, in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Act. The provisions of Section 186 of the Act read with the Companies (Meetings of Board and its Powers) Rules, 2014, as amended to date, provides that no company is permitted to, directly or indirectly, (a) give any loan to any person or other body corporate; (b) give any guarantee or provide security in connection with a loan to any other body corporate or person; and (c) acquire by way of subscription, purchase or otherwise, the securities of any other body corporate, exceeding 60% of its paid-up share capital, free reserves and securities premium account or 100% of its free reserves and securities premium account, whichever is more. Further, the said Section provides that where giving of any loan or guarantee or providing any security or the acquisition as provided under Section 186(2) of the Act, exceeds the limits specified therein, prior approval of shareholders by means of a Special Resolution is required to be passed at a general meeting. Since the aggregate amount of the loans and investments so far made, along with the loans,

investments, guarantees, provide security to be made/ provided by the Company in the near future, may exceed the limits prescribed under the provision of section 186 (2) of the Companies Act, 2013, so, it is feasible for the Company to get the prior approval from the shareholders of the Company by way of Special Resolution for enhancing the limits specified under Section 186 of the Act.

In view of the above and considering the long term business plans of the Company, which requires the Company to make sizeable loans/ investments and issue guarantees/ securities to persons or bodies corporate, from time to time, the Board of Directors of the Company proposes to obtain approval of shareholders by way of special resolution as contained in the notice of the Postal Ballot for the purpose of aforesaid loan, investments, guarantees and securities for an amount not exceeding a sum of ₹ 3000 Crores (Rupees Three Thousand Crores only) in aggregate, outstanding at any time notwithstanding that such investments, outstanding loans given or to be given and guarantees and security provided are in excess of the limits prescribed under Section 186 of the Companies Act, 2013.

None of the Directors / Key Managerial Personnel of the Company / their relatives are, in any way, concerned or interested, financially or otherwise, in the resolution set out at Item No. 2 of this Postal Ballot Notice except to the extent of their shareholding in the Company.

The Board of Directors recommends the Special Resolution set out in Item No.2 of this Notice for approval by the members.
