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

As required under Section 102 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the “Act”), the following Explanatory Statement sets out all material facts relating to the business/ item mentioned in the accompanying Notice:

ITEM NO. 1

The Board of Directors of your Company in its meeting held on 07/08/2024 has approved the split / subdivision of each equity share of the Company, having face value of Rs. 10/- (Rupees Ten only) each, fully paid-up, into 2 (Two) Equity Shares having face value of Rs. 5/- (Rupee Five only) each, fully paid- up, ranking pari-passu in all respects, based on the recommendation of the Stakeholders Relationship Committee (“SRC”) and subject to the approval of members of the Company & the concerned stock exchanges / statutory authority, if any. Further, the split / sub-division shall not be construed as reduction in share capital of the Company, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.

In the opinion of the Board, the proposed spilt / sub-division will enhance the liquidity of the Company’s equity shares and create value for the shareholders and therefore it is in the best interest of the investors / shareholders of the Company.

The said split / sub-division of equity shares requires the approval of the members of the Company. Hence, the Board of Directors recommended the above resolution as an Ordinary Resolution for the approval by the Members’ of the Company.

None of the Directors or Key Managerial Personnel of the Company or their relatives are in anyway concerned or interested in the above resolution except to the extent of their shareholding interest in the Company.

ITEM NO. 2

The split / sub-division of equity shares of the Company, as per the aforesaid resolution set out in Item no. 1 above, necessitates the alteration of the existing Capital Clause i.e., Clause 5 of the Memorandum of Association of the Company. There will not be any change in the amount of authorised, subscribed, issued and paid-up share capital of the Company on account of split / sub-division of the equity shares as it will only alter / change the number of equity shares of the Company. As number of shares will get doubled after the split / sub-division i.e. number of Equity Shares will become 4,00,00,000 in place of the exisiting 2,00,00,000 Equity Shares and face value will be reduced to half i.e face value will become Rs. 5/- per Equity Share in place of the existing Rs.10/- per Equity Share. So, the capital will remain the same.

Page 3

The said alteration of the capital clause of MOA requires the approval of the members of the Company. Hence, the Board of Directors recommended the above resolution as an Ordinary Resolution for the approval by the Members’ of the Company.

None of the Directors or Key Managerial Personnel of the Company or their relatives are in anyway concerned or interested in the above resolution except to the extent of their shareholding interest in the Company.
