Continuation Sheet
December 31, 2020 (collectively referred to as "MCA Circulars") and SEBI Circular dated May 12, 2020 and January 15, 2021.
The Company had availed the e-voting facility offered by National Securities Depository Limited's ('NSDL') for conducting remote e-voting by the Shareholders of the Company.
The voting period for remote e-voting commenced on Saturday, June 26, 2021 (9:00 a.m. IST) and ended on Tuesday, June 29, 2021 (5:00 p.m. IST) and the NSDL evoting platform was disabled thereafter.

The shareholders of the Company holding shares as on the "cut-off" date of Wednesday, June 23, 2021 were entitled to vote on the resolutions as contained in the Notice of the AGM.
After the closure of e-voting at the AGM, the report on remote voting done during the AGM and the votes cast under remote e-voting facility prior to the AGM were unblocked and counted.
I have scrutinized and reviewed the remote e-voting prior to and during the AGM and votes cast therein based on the data downloaded from the NSDL e-voting system.
The Management of the Company is responsible to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Act and rules relating to remote e-voting prior to and during the AGM on the resolutions contained in the notice of the AGM.
My responsibility as scrutinizer for the remote e-voting is restricted to making a Scrutinizer's Report of the votes cast in favour or against the resolutions.
I now submit my consolidated report as under on the result of the remote e-voting prior to and during the AGM in respect of the said resolutions.
