The Company is currently engaged in a continuous phase of growth, encompassing both organic and inorganic expansion. This includes potential investments in new allied areas, expansion into new geographies, acquisition of new assets, and the adoption of new practices to secure the Company’s future growth potential.

In view of this anticipated expansion, it may be necessary for the Company to raise additional capital through an equity issuance. This resolution serves as an enabling resolution, authorizing the Company to consider such a capital raise, in order to support these growth initiatives. This enabling resolution does not represent an immediate plan or commitment to raise funds. The Company will only pursue a capital raise if an appropriate opportunity arises where deployment of additional funds is justified and strategically advantageous.

Objects: Any proceeds from such an issuance, if undertaken, will be applied towards meeting the fund requirements for organic and inorganic growth opportunities (including funding existing obligations), capital expenditure (greenfield expansion and/or brownfield expansion), repayment or pre-payment of the existing borrowings of the Company and other general corporate purposes, as may be permitted under the applicable laws.

The Board of Directors of the Company (“Board”) which term shall be deemed to include any committee of the Board duly constituted by it authorised to exercise its powers including powers conferred under the resolution, in order to fulfil the aforesaid objects, have considered and approved in the board meeting held on October 23, 2024, seeking approval of the shareholders to enable raising of funds by way of issuance of Equity Shares and/or other securities convertible into Equity Shares and/or any other instruments and/or eligible securities representing either equity shares and/or convertible securities linked to equity shares or through any other permissible mode (hereinafter referred to as “Securities”), or any combination thereof, in one or more tranches in Indian Rupee denomination, in the course of domestic offerings, in terms of the applicable regulations and as permitted under the applicable laws, in such manner, and

The Board may, at its discretion, adopt any one or more of the mechanisms prescribed above to meet its objectives as stated in the aforesaid paragraphs without the need for fresh approval from the members of the Company.
