EXPLANATORY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 102(1) OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 2013 SETTING OUT ALL THE MATERIAL FACTS RELATING TO SPECIAL BUSINESS:
ITEM NO. 1
Pursuant to the provisions of Sections 149, 150, 152 and Schedule IV of the Companies Act, 2013 ("Act") read with the Companies (Appointment and Qualification of Directors) Rules, 2014 ("Rules") made thereunder, Mr. Atul Rasiklal Desai (DIN: 01918187) was appointed as Independent Director of the Company for a period of 3 (three) years with effect from June 28, 2023 to June 27, 2026 (both days inclusive) by members of the Company at the 121st Annual General Meeting of the Company held on September 27, 2023. Accordingly, the first term of 3 (three) consecutive years of Mr. Atul Rasiklal Desai (DIN: 01918187), as Independent Director of the Company, is due to expire on June 27, 2026.
As per Section 149(11) of the Act, an Independent Director may hold office for up to two consecutive terms of up to 5 (five) years each. Further, as per Section 149(10) of the Act read with Regulation 25(2A) of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosures Requirements) Regulations, 2015 ("SEBI Listing Regulations"), an Independent Director shall be eligible for re-appointment, for second term on passing of a special resolution by members of the Company. Also, Regulation 17(1C) of SEBI Listing Regulations, inter-alia, provides that the listed entity shall ensure that approval of shareholders for re-appointment of a person on the Board is taken at the next general meeting or within a time period of 3 (three) months from the date of appointment, whichever is earlier.
The Company follows a robust process for re-appointment of Board members. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee ("NRC") oversees the succession planning, inter-alia, for the Board and thoroughly assesses various factors while considering re-appointment of Independent Director including background, expertise, skill set, experience, performance evaluation, educational & professional qualifications and personal achievements. Further, the Board also deliberates on various factors including present composition of the Board to ensure optimum combination of executive and non-executive directors, tenure of the Board members, skill matrix, board diversity, time-commitment and statutory requirements.
Accordingly, the NRC by circular resolution passed on May 07, 2026, inter-alia, evaluated and considered the proposal for re-appointment of Mr. Desai as Independent Director on Company's Board. Mr. Atul Rasiklal Desai (DIN: 01918187) is deeply involved in Company's strategies/ goals and actively participates in Board and Committee meetings. He has maintained an excellent attendance record at Board and Committee meetings. In view of his rich and extensive experience, engagements with Mr. Desai are meaningful and offers valuable mentorship to the Company's management team. The NRC, after taking into account the positive outcome of the performance evaluation of Mr. Desai during his current term as Independent Director and considering his skills, acumen, knowledge, time commitment to Company, experience in the sector, recommended his re-appointment to the Board for a second term effective from June 28, 2026 to June 27, 2029 (both days inclusive).
NRC further noted that skills, expertise and competencies possessed by Mr. Desai are in alignment with the skills and expertise, identified by the NRC and the Board, for the Directors of the Company. The Board, by circular resolution passed on May 11, 2026, considered the recommendation of the NRC and comprehensive performance evaluation report of Mr. Desai. In view of his contribution over years as an Independent Director of the Company, the Board believes that Mr. Desai's continued association as an Independent Director would be of immense benefit during this pivotal phase of growth.
Accordingly, the Board of Directors and NRC are of the opinion that considering Mr. Atul Desai's experience and performance during the course of his tenure, his continued association would be of immense benefit to the Board. Accordingly, it is proposed to seek approval of shareholders of the Company by way of a Special Resolution through Postal Ballot for re-appointment of Mr. Atul Rasiklal Desai (DIN: 01918187) as an Independent Director on the Board of Directors of the Company to hold office for a second term of three consecutive years commencing from June 28, 2026 to June 27, 2029 (both days inclusive), not liable to retire by rotation.
