EXPLANATORY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 102 OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 2013

Item no. 1, 2 & 3

Background:

Magma HDI General Insurance Company Limited (“ Magma HDI ”) is a joint venture for carrying out general insurance business in India. Poonawalla Fincorp Limited (“ PFL”/ “Company” ), Celica Developers Private Limited (“ Celica ”), Jaguar Advisory Services Private Limited (“ Jaguar ”), HDI Global SE (“ HDI ”) and Magma HDI are parties to the joint venture agreement dated July 28, 2009, as amended from time to time (“ Joint Venture Agreement ”).

The Company being a subsidiary of Rising Sun Holdings Private Limited (“ RSHPL ”) does not satisfy the definition of Indian promoter and therefore, can no longer remain a promoter of Magma HDI, an insurance Joint Venture Company with HDI pursuant to Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (Registration of Indian Insurance Companies) Regulations, 2000 (“ IRDAI Registration Regulations ”) post RSHPL taking the controlling stake in PFL.

IRDAI has intimated PFL and Magma HDI regarding the aforesaid and has sought compliance from Magma HDI with IRDAI Registration Regulations.

Proposed Structure and Rationale:

The Company being a subsidiary of RSHPL can no longer remain a promoter of Magma HDI, Insurance Joint venture Company. However, a limited liability partnership is permitted to be an Indian Promoter of an insurance company as per regulation 2(g) (vi) of IRDAI Registration Regulations.

IRDAI Registration Regulations requires that a promoter of an insurance company cannot be a subsidiary of another Company. The Board of Directors of the Company have evaluated alternative structure options and has proposed that in order to meet the regulatory requirements of IRDAI Registration Regulations and the Reserve Bank of India, the most optimum solution is to divest the Company’s shareholding to Sanoti Properties LLP, which is held by Mr. Adar Poonawalla, the controlling promoter of the Company and Serum Institute of India Private Limited or may be another entity of the Poonawalla group as identified by the Promoters, subject to such entity being eligible to being a Promoter of an insurance company under applicable norms. This structure is in line with other financial services groups with NBFC and general insurance operations and will also allow a framework for continuing close working relationship between the Company and Magma HDI. In this regard the Company has also obtained a legal opinion from Wadia Ghandy & Co., the same will be available for inspection at the registered office of the Company.

In addition to meeting with the immediate regulatory requirements, the divestment is in line with Company’s strategy to focus on the core lending business and monetise the investment in Magma HDI, and have full capital allocation to the core lending businesses. At the same time, the insurance business will be retained within the group itself.

15 | P a g e

==> picture [608 x 70] intentionally omitted <==

Further, the Company is currently focused on high ROE business and accordingly capital needs to be freed from various investments made by the Company to facilitate the business objectives of the Company. Insurance is a capital-intensive sector and if the Company continues with its investment, then it would need to continue capitalising Magma HDI from time to time. This would end up reducing the available funds for the focussed high ROE business of the Company. Consequently, the divestment would also meet the objective of the Company to focus on its growth business.

The valuation for the transaction is proposed to be at a post-money valuation of Rs 1,500 crores for Magma HDI (including the proposed equity issuance by Magma HDI announced in March 2021, presently awaiting regulatory approvals). Magma HDI has received a valuation report for the same from Corporate Professionals Valuation Services Private Limited, independent Registered Valuer, and the Company has a received a fairness opinion on the same from Ernst & Young Merchant Banking Services LLP. The valuation report and the fairness opinion will be available for inspection at the registered office of the Company. Based on the valuation report and the fairness opinion, the members may also note that the aforesaid transaction with Sanoti Properties LLP is at an arms’ length.

The transaction is structured with a dual objective of ensuring compliance with Regulations of the two sector Regulators viz. RBI & IRDAI and also ensuring that the proposed Shareholding of Magma HDI provides it certainty of Capital for meeting its growth Solvency requirements. Sanoti Properties LLP, being a limited liability partnership, having Mr. Adar Poonawalla and Serum Institute of India Private Limited as its partners or may be another entity of the Poonawalla group as identified by the Promoters, subject to such entity being eligible to being a Promoter of an insurance company under applicable norms, will acquire or ultimately hold the equity shares of Magma HDI (“ Equity Shares ”) at a valuation Rs. 79.6684/- per Equity Share as set out below subject to corporate and regulatory approvals:

  • (i) 4,53,62,281 Equity Shares presently held by PFL;

  • (ii) 2,25,00,000 Equity Shares presently held by Jaguar;

  • (iii) 3,20,00,000 Equity Shares presently held by HDI.

It may be noted that the Company is divesting its direct holding in Magma HDI and also the indirect holding (through Jaguar) as Jaguar is also transferring its stake in Magma HDI to Sanoti Properties LLP.

As part of the consolidation of the shareholding of Magma HDI, 1,53,17,600 Equity Shares of Magma HDI held by Serum Institute of India Private Limited is also proposed to be acquired by Sanoti Properties LLP. Further, on March 17, 2021, Celica had entered into a share purchase and shareholders’ agreement wherein it had agreed to transfer 1,10,37,234 Equity Shares of Magma HDI to Cyza Chem Private Limited (“Cyza”). This transfer is pending regulatory approvals. It has been now proposed that instead of Cyza, the said Equity Shares of Magma HDI will also be acquired by Sanoti Properties LLP. Further HDI is also intending to exit and accordingly, Celica shall purchase the entire stake held by HDI presently, (as agreed in the Joint Venture Agreement), and will subsequently transfer the same to Sanoti Properties LLP or such other entity of the Poonawalla group. Accordingly, pursuant to the proposed restructuring Sanoti Properties LLP will hold approximately 66.521% of the Equity Capital of Magma HDI (on a fully diluted basis). The pre and post shareholding pattern of Magma HDI is provided in Annexure A to this Statement.

Pursuant to the completion of the subscription by RSHPL and the open offer as per the applicable SEBI regulations, PFL became a subsidiary of RSHPL. In the detailed public offer, provided then, the divestment of the shares of Magma HDI was not contemplated and hence not disclosed. However, in light of the intimation received from the regulators and upon discussions with the experts and advisors as mentioned above, the most optimum solution to ensure a compliant structure as per the IRDAI Registration Regulations and also the RBI regulations is to divest the entire stake of PFL in Magma HDI.

Regulation 25(2) of Securities and Exchange Board of India (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2011, provides that if a target company, or any of its subsidiaries is required to so alienate assets, within a period of two years from the open offer, despite the intention to alienate not having been expressed by the acquirer in the detailed public offer, then such alienation shall require a special resolution passed by shareholders of the target company.

In light of the facts mentioned above, and Regulation 25(2) of Securities and Exchange Board of India (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2011, the approval of the shareholders of the Company is sought for the proposed divestment of stake in Magma HDI.

17 | P a g e

==> picture [608 x 70] intentionally omitted <==

Further, Section 180(1)(a) of the Companies Act, 2013 (“Act”) requires that the Board of Directors shall not, without the consent of the members obtained by special resolution, sell, lease or otherwise dispose off the whole or substantially the whole of the undertaking of the Company in which the investment of the Company exceeds 20% of its net worth as per the audited balance sheet of the preceding financial year. It is to be noted that the shares of Magma HDI held by the Company does not amount to an ‘undertaking’ and thus does not require an approval from the shareholders under section 180(1)(a) of the Act, however the approval of the shareholders is being sought as a matter of abundant caution and considering the significance of the transaction.

The proposed transaction is also subject to regulatory approvals including from IRDAI and the Competition Commission of India.
