Due to strong business recovery in the year 2021, the projected value of Material Related Party Transactions with Schaeffler Technologies AG & Co. KG, Germany for the year 2021 was estimated to be INR 13,273 million, which was higher than the actual value of transactions during the year 2020 together with the increase by 20% as approved by the Shareholders. Hence, the Company obtained the Shareholders’ approval in the 58th Annual General Meeting held on April 27, 2021 for the increased limit i.e., INR 13,273 million. Due to improved and strong business performance during the year, the value of revised estimated Material Related Party Transactions for the year 2021 is likely to be INR 17,358 million, which is exceeding the approved limit of INR 13,273 million.

None of the Directors, Key Managerial Personnel of the Company and their relatives are, in any way, concerned or interested, financially or otherwise, in the resolution set out at item no. 1 of the Notice except to the extent of their directorship or shareholding or employment in the Company or in Schaeffler Technologies or any other Schaeffler Group Company, as the case may be, if any.

Approval for alteration of Capital Clause of Memorandum of Association of the Company

The Equity Shares of your Company are listed and traded on BSE Ltd and National Stock Exchange of India Ltd.

Over the years, the company has performed well and our investors and Shareholders have shown tremendous confidence. With an aim to encourage wider participation of investors and improve the liquidity of the Equity Shares in the stock market, the Board of Directors at its meeting held on October 28, 2021 has considered and recommended the Sub-division of 1 (One) Equity Share of the Company of the face value of Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten Only) each into 5 (Five) Equity Shares of the Company of face value of Rs. 2/- (Rupees Two only) each fully paid up subject to approval of the Members and other statutory and regulatory approvals, as applicable.

Presently, the Authorized Share Capital of the Company is Rs. 125,50,00,000 (Rupees One Hundred and Twenty-Five Crore Fifty Lakh Only) divided into 12,55,00,000 Equity Shares of Rs. 10 (Rupees Ten Only) each and the paid-up share capital of the Company is Rs. 31,26,07,340/- divided into 3,12,60,734 Equity Shares of Rs. 10/- (Rupees Ten Only) each fully paid-up.

The proposed Sub-division of Equity Shares will not result in any change in the amount of authorized and paid-up share capital of the Company.
