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

Item No. 1:

As per the provisions of section 180(1)(c) and other applicable provisions of the Companies Act 2013, ("the Act") the Board of Directors require the consent of the Company in general meeting to borrow monies apart from temporary loans obtained from the Company's bankers in the ordinary course of business, in excess of the aggregate of the paid up capital, free reserves and securities premium.

The consent of the members of the Company is required under the provision of section 180(1)(c) and applicable provisions of the Act, authorizing the Board of Directors of the Company to borrow monies in excess of paid up, capital, free reserves and securities premium, and to specify total amount up to which monies may be borrowed.

The Company at its Annual General Meeting held on 29th September 2018 had empowered the Board of Directors of the Company to borrow and raise money not exceeding ` 6,000 Crores (Rupees Six Thousand Crores only).

To meet fund requirement of the Company's business, refinance its existing high cost debts and various other purposes including funding its growth plans, the Company requires to borrow monies from time to time as circumstances warrant. It is therefore desirable, to provide a sufficient borrowing limit to the Board.

Therefore, it is proposed to increase the borrowing limits and to authorize and empower the Board to exercise powers in such a manner as it thinks fit in respect to borrow monies in excess of the aggregate of the paid-up share capital, free reserves and securities premium of the Company, provided that the outstanding principal amount of such borrowings at any point of time shall not exceed ` 10,000 crores (Rupees Ten Thousand Crores only).

The Board recommends the passing of the resolution as set out at Item No. 1 for approval of the Members as a Special Resolution.

None of the Directors, Key Managerial Personnel of the Company or any of their relatives are concerned or interested in the resolution, except to the extent of equity shares in the Company that may be held by them or any entity in which they may be deemed to be concerned or interested.

Item No. 2:

The resolution relates to authorizing the Board of Directors of the Company to create mortgage, charge, pledge, hypothecation, interest etc. on all or any of the present and future assets, undertakings, receivables, projects, agreements, rights, privileges, investments, securities, movable and immovable properties of the Company as described in the said Resolution.

As the Company is planning to repay some of existing high cost debts, it plans to raise monies by such means as the circumstances may warrant, to repay high cost debts and accordingly reduce borrowing costs in the interest of the Company. Even though raising borrowings to repay existing debt and creating security in favour of the new lenders in lieu of charges created in favour of the existing lenders would not result in an increase in the borrowings or security thresholds for the Company as a substantive matter, the approval of members of the Company is still proposed to be taken for good order. The Company may also be required to borrow monies to meet the fund requirement arising out of growth in the operations of the Company from time to time as circumstances warrant.

The borrowings and credit facilities availed by the Company would need to be secured in manner, as may be agreed with Lenders, including by way of charge, mortgage, pledge, hypothecation and/or encumbrance on or in relation to the Company's assets, properties, undertaking etc. as described in the Resolution.

The Company had earlier empowered the Board of Directors of the Company to create mortgage, charge, pledge, hypothecation, interest etc. to secure loans not exceeding ` 6,000 Crores (Rupees Six Thousand Crores only) by way of a special resolution passed by the shareholders in its Annual General Meeting held on 29th September, 2018.

The consent of the shareholders is required under the provision of section 180(1)(a) and applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, authorizing the Board of Directors of the Company for creation of charge etc. on assets of the Company, as described in the Resolution, for an amount up to ` 10,000 Crores (Rupees Ten Thousand Crores). This resolution on coming into effect and being acted upon, would be in supersession of the earlier resolutions passed for the subject matter, however, it will not affect or invalidate the acts or deeds already executed under earlier resolution.

It is desirable, as a matter of abundant caution also, to authorize the Board sufficiently in respect to matters as mentioned in the resolution, to give effect to the above mentioned resolution. For financial and other business details, financial statements of company may be referred which are available on website of the Company.

The Board recommends the passing of the resolution as set out at Item No. 2 for approval of the Members as a Special Resolution.

Directors, Key Managerial Personnel of the Company and any of their relatives are not in any way, concerned or interested, financially or otherwise, in the resolution, except to the extent of shares in the Company that may be held by them or their relatives or any entity in which they may be deemed to be concerned or interested.

Item No. 3:

The Company is in advanced discussions with its existing lenders to refinance its existing debt with the objective of reducing borrowing costs and timely funding of growth operations of the Company.

This is proposed to be implemented through a composite transaction for refinancing the rupee term loan and working capital facility extended by the existing lenders and for redeeming/purchasing the Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs), the 0.01% optionally Convertible Preference Shares (OCPS) and the 0.01% Redeemable Preference Shares (RPS) held by such lenders in the Company at a mutually agreed valuation.
