Pursuant to the provisions of Section 149, 150, 152 and 161 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) read with Schedule IV of the Act and as per the recommendation of Nomination and Remuneration Committee, the Board of Directors appointed Dr. Thomas Mathew (DIN: 05203948) as an Additional Director in the category of Independent Director of the Company for a term of five consecutive years effective from December 25, 2024.

The Company has received a declaration from Dr. Thomas Mathew confirming that he meets the criteria of independence as prescribed both under Section 149(6) of the Act and under the Listing Regulations. In the opinion of the Board and based on the declaration of independence submitted by him, Dr. Thomas Mathew fulfils the conditions specified in the Act, the Rules made thereunder and the Listing Regulations for his appointment as an Independent Director and that he is independent of the management.
As required under Section 160 of the Act, the Company has received a notice in writing from a Member proposing the candidature of Dr. Thomas Mathew for the office of Director of the Company. Dr. Thomas Mathew has given his consent to act as Director and is not disqualified from being appointed as Director in terms of Section 164 of the Act and also confirmed that he is not debarred from holding the office of director by virtue of any order by SEBI or any other such authority.

The Nomination and Remuneration Committee while recommending his appointment, has considered amongst others, leadership capabilities, expertise in governance, legal compliance, administrative knowledge and experience as the skills required for this role. Accordingly, the Board of Directors are of the view that Dr. Thomas Mathew possesses the requisite skills and capabilities, which would be of immense benefit to the Company and hence it is desirable to appoint him as an Independent Director on the Board of the Company.
Keeping in view the above, consent of the Members for appointment of Dr. Thomas Mathew as an Independent Director, not liable to retire by rotation, is sought by way of special resolution, as set out in the resolution in Item
No. 1 of the accompanying Notice.
Dr. Thomas Mathew is interested in the resolution set out in Item No. 1 of the accompanying notice with regard to his appointment.

|---|---|
| Reasons of loss or inadequate profts |
The Company operates through its subsidiaries and has built diversifed portfolio of projects in terms of source of fuel; business model; power purchasers; etc. Further, some of the power projects of the Company are operational while the other power projects are under various stages of development. The Company has undertaken measures for monetisation of assets of the subsidiaries, where projects could not be executed/ made operational due to regulatory and / or other reasons, which would unlock the investments held up therein. Increase in operating costs and lower than expected realization of monetization proceeds hasprimarilycontributed to inadequateproft duringtheyear. |
| Steps taken or proposed to be taken for improvement |
The Company has cleared its debt obligations and is now poised to venture into new horizons of growth. In particular, the Company intends to expand its presence in the renewable energy sector, directly and also through its special purpose vehicles and subsidiaries. Further, Reliance NU Suntech Private Limited, a subsidiary of the Company, won a landmark 930 MW solar energy contract with battery energy storage system project (BESS) of 1860 MWH from Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) in an e-reverse auction held on December 09, 2024. Additionally, the newly formed Reliance Enterprises Private Limited in Bhutan has partnered up with Druk Holding and Investments Limited (Druk Holding) to jointly develop a 500 MW solar power plant in Gelephu Mindfulness City, Bhutan. This ambitious project is set to be executed over the next two years in two phases of 250 MW each. In addition to the solar initiative, the Company and Druk Holding have announced plans to jointly develop the 770 MW Chamkharchhu-1 hydro project. It is classifed as a run-of-the-riverproject. |
| Expected increase in productivity and profts in measurable terms |
The combined effect of enhanced cash fows in operating subsidiaries and expansion of business will lead to enhanced profts, for the Company in the medium term, which will be measured in the future, contingent on certain factors. |
