Healthcare and investment business undertaking.
The Demerged company would demerge Automotive/Tractor/Engineering Components Business undertaking (hereinafter referred to as “Demerged Undertaking”) to the Resulting company and it would continue to run and operate the healthcare and investment business undertaking (hereinafter referred to as the “Remaining Business / Retained Undertaking”). The underlying business rationale and objectives are as follows.
- a) With the complete integration of the Demerged Undertaking with Resulting Company, the manufacturing and machining capacity of the Resulting Company will stand enhanced. Since, PIL fulfils its raw material supply (i.e., Raw Castings) needs from PAIL, the Demerger would eliminate the inter dependence and shall be a forward integration of manufacturing and machining activities of PAIL which in turn add to efficiency, economy in operations and ultimately add to shareholders wealth.

-
b) PIL and PAIL are in the same line of business and cater the needs of same customers (i.e. OEMs). The Scheme of Arrangement would consolidate and synchronize the business structure and eliminate the unnecessary competition and conflict of interest within the group which will create transparency and confidence with the investors and the market.
-
c) The Demerged Company currently has business interest in diverse businesses such as Manufacturing, Healthcare and Investment & Financing activities and other allied activities. With a view to achieve greater management focus in other business activities, Demerged Company proposes to demerge its business interest in the Demerged Undertaking and vest the same in the Resulting Company.
-
d) The consolidation of operations of the Manufacturing Business of Demerged Company and the Resulting Company by merging the Demerged Undertaking into Resulting Company, will lead to a more efficient utilisation of capital, administrative and operational rationalization and promote organisational efficiencies. It will help achieve cost efficiency that will enhance the financial efficiencies and help achieve economies of scale, reduction in overheads and improvement in various other operating parameters.
-
e) The Demerged undertaking and remaining undertaking have their own set of strengths and dynamics in the form of nature of risks, competition, challenges, opportunities and business methods leading to different growth potentials. Hence segregation of the two undertakings would enable a focused management to explore the potential business opportunities effectively and efficiently.
-
f) The demerger would result in achieving efficiency in operational process by designing and implementing independent strategies specifically designed for the two businesses and in optimising profitability. This would in turn enhance the shareholders wealth.
-
g) Targeting and attracting new investors with specific focus and expertise in the two businesses thereby providing the necessary funding impetus to the long-term growth strategy of the two businesses.
-
h) Integration would result in maximising overall shareholder value, improvising the competitive position and enabling to unlock the economic value of both the entities.
-
i) Improved organisational capability and leadership, arising from the pooling of human capital who have the diverse skills, talent and vast experience to compete successfully in an increasingly competitive industry.
-
j) Cost savings are expected to flow from more focused operational efforts, rationalization, standardisation and simplification of business processes, and the elimination of duplication, and rationalization of administrative expenses.
In view of the aforesaid, the Board of Directors of the Demerged Company and the Resulting Company have considered it desirable and expedient to demerge the Demerged Undertaking of the Demerged Company and vest the same with the Resulting Company, in order to benefit the stakeholders of both the companies.
Accordingly, the Board of Directors of the Demerged Company and the Resulting Company have formulated this Scheme of Arrangement for the transfer and vesting of the Demerged Undertaking with and into the Resulting Company pursuant to the provisions of Section 230 to Section 232 and other relevant provisions of the Act.

4. Rationale of the Scheme
-
The Demerged Company is engaged in various businesses and owns the following two business undertakings.
-
Automotive/Tractor/Engineering Components Business undertaking
-
Healthcare and investment business undertaking.
The Demerged company would demerge Automotive/Tractor/Engineering Components Business undertaking (hereinafter referred to as “Demerged Undertaking”) to the Resulting company and it would continue to run and operate the healthcare and investment business undertaking (hereinafter referred to as the “Remaining Business / Retained Undertaking”). The underlying business rationale and objectives are as follows.
-
a) With the complete integration of the Demerged Undertaking with Resulting Company, the manufacturing and machining capacity of the Resulting Company will stand enhanced. Since, PIL fulfils its raw material supply (i.e., Raw Castings) needs from PAIL, the Demerger would eliminate the inter dependence and shall be a forward integration of manufacturing and machining activities of PAIL which in turn add to efficiency, economy in operations and ultimately add to shareholders wealth.
-
b) PIL and PAIL are in the same line of business and cater the needs of same customers (i.e. OEMs). The Scheme of Arrangement would consolidate and synchronize the business structure and eliminate the unnecessary competition

and conflict of interest within the group which will create transparency and confidence with the investors and the market.
c) The Demerged Company currently has business interest in diverse businesses such as Manufacturing, Healthcare and Investment & Financing activities and other allied activities. With a view to achieve greater management focus in other business activities, Demerged Company proposes to demerge its business interest in the Demerged Undertaking and vest the same in the Resulting Company.

It will help achieve cost efficiency that will enhance the financial efficiencies and help achieve economies of scale, reduction in overheads and improvement in various other operating parameters.
e) The Demerged undertaking and remaining undertaking have their own set of strengths and dynamics in the form of nature of risks, competition, challenges, opportunities and business methods leading to different growth potentials. Hence segregation of the two undertakings would enable a focused management to explore the potential business opportunities effectively and efficiently.
f) The demerger would result in achieving efficiency in operational process by designing and implementing independent strategies specifically designed for the two businesses and in optimising profitability. This would in turn enhance the shareholders wealth.
g) Targeting and attracting new investors with specific focus and expertise in the two businesses thereby providing the necessary funding impetus to the long-term growth strategy of the two businesses.
- h) Integration would result in maximising overall shareholder value, improvising the competitive position and enabling to unlock the economic value of both the entities.
i) Improved organisational capability and leadership, arising from the pooling of human capital who have the diverse skills, talent and vast experience to compete successfully in an increasingly competitive industry.
- j) Cost savings are expected to flow from more focused operational efforts, rationalization, standardisation and simplification of business processes, and the elimination of duplication, and rationalization of administrative expenses.
