Postal Ballot Notice

Explanatory Statement pursuant to the provisions of Section 102 of the Companies Act, 2013.

Item No. 1 & 2

As the members of the Company would observe the company has been making steady growth in its operations and the overall performance of the company has been improving year after year, in particular during the last 3 years. The Company had achieved a Turnover of Rs.10,038.24 Crores for the F.Y 2021-22 and which increased to Rs.13,503.57 Crores for the F.Y 2022-23.The Order Book of the Company which stood around Rs.37,911 Crores as on 31st March 2021 increased to around Rs.55,000 Crores as of 30th September 2023. Keeping in view the major orders received / expected to be received during the current financial year and also the business plan drawn up for the current financial year the company has approached the Consortium of Banks for enhancing the Working Capital Limits. The Members of the company would note that commensurate with the growth plans drawn up by the company for the next 5 years there is a need for enhancing the borrowing powers of the company and the powers for charging the properties of the company in favour of the lenders from the existing limit of Rs.20,000 Crores upto which the Members of the company had accorded approval vide Special Resolutions passed at the AGM held on 10th August 2018 pursuant to Sections 180(1)(c) and 180(1)(a) of the Companies Act 2013 read with the Rules framed thereunder and the provisions of the SEBI (LODR) Regulations as amended.

Keeping in view the growth plans drawn up by the company for the next 5 years i.e. 2023-24 to 2027-28 there is a need for increasing the borrowings powers of the company and the limit for mortgaging / charging the properties of the company in favour of the lenders from the existing limit of Rs.20,000 Crores to Rs.35,000 Crores. A major portion of the borrowing already availed and proposed to be availed by the Company would be non-fund borrowing by way of BG and LC limits. In the Construction and Infra Industry the major requirement of borrowing is by way of BG Limits which are required right from the stage of bidding for the projects. The proposed enhanced limits in the borrowing powers are expected to be sufficient for meeting the business requirements of the Company for the next five years i.e. upto the F.Y.2027-28. Under the provisions of Sections 180(1)(c) and 180(1)(a) of the Companies Act 2013 read with the Rules framed thereunder and the provisions of the SEBI (LODR) Regulations as amended, the aforesaid proposals for increasing the Borrowing Powers and mortgaging / charging the properties of the company in favour of the lenders from the existing limit of Rs.20,000 Crores to Rs.35,000 Crores would require the approval of the Members of the Company by way of Special Resolutions as indicated at Sl.No.1 and 2 of the Postal Ballot Notice.

None of the Directors or the Key Managerial Personnel or their relatives are interested or concerned financially or otherwise in the aforesaid resolutions.

The Board commends the Special Resolutions as set out at item numbers 1&2 of the Postal Ballot Notice for the approval of the members of the Company.
