Necessary information/details in relation to the Preferential Issue as required under the SEBI ICDR Regulations and the Companies Act, 2013 (“Act”) read with the rules issued thereunder, are set forth below:

1. Particulars of the offer including date of passing of Board resolution

The Board, pursuant to its resolution dated 17[th] May 2025, has approved the proposed preferential issue of up to 21,48,866 (Twenty-one Lakhs Forty-Eight Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty-Six) fully paid-up Equity Shares having a face value of Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten Only) each at a price of Rs. 221/- (Rupees Two Hundred and Twenty-one Only) per equity share (including a premium of Rs. 211/- (Rupees Two Hundred and Eleven Only) per equity share for consideration other than cash which is not less than the floor price prescribed under Chapter V of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, on a preferential basis.

The consideration for the Preferential Issue is Rs.47,48,99,970 (Rupees Forty-Seven Crores Forty-Eight Lakhs Ninety-Nine Thousand Nine Hundred and Seventy Only) towards the acquisition of 4,74,89,997 (Four Crores Seventy-Four Lakhs Eighty-Nine Thousand Nine Hundred and Ninety-Seven) equity shares of Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten Only) each of Veranda Administrative Learning Solutions Private Limited (“ VALSPL ”) ( “Sale Shares” ) from its existing shareholders, representing 24.14% equity stake, of VALSPL, from the existing shareholders who are the Proposed Allottees as detailed in the resolution at Item No. 02 of this Notice and the accompanying Explanatory Statement.

However, the actual consideration being discharged pursuant to this Preferential Issue of 21,48,866 (Twenty-one Lakhs Forty-Eight Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty-Six) fully paid-up Equity Shares having a face value of Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten Only) each at a price of Rs. 221/- (Rupees Two Hundred and Twenty-one Only) per equity share (including a premium of Rs. 211/- (Rupees Two Hundred and Eleven Only) per equity share stands at Rs.47,48,99,386 (Rupees Forty-Seven Crores Forty-Eight Lakhs Ninety-Nine Thousand Three Hundred and Eighty-Six Only), on account of rounding adjustments as the company cannot issue fractional shares.

Eighty-Four Only) will be appropriately adjusted in the books of accounts of Veranda Learning Solutions Limited (“ the Company ”) as capital reserve.

The Preferential Issue is being made in accordance with the applicable provisions of the SEBI (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018 (“SEBI ICDR Regulations”), as amended, and is subject to receipt of necessary approvals from the stock exchanges and any other regulatory authorities, as may be applicable.

2. Object(s) of the Preferential Issue:

The object of the proposed issue and allotment of up to 21,48,866 (Twenty-One Lakhs Forty-Eight Thousand Eight Hundred Sixty-Six) Equity Shares of Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten Only) each of the Company to the Proposed Allottees is to discharge the purchase consideration of Rs. 47,48,99,970 (Rupees Forty-Seven Crores Forty-Eight Lakhs Ninety-Nine Thousand Nine Hundred Seventy Only) payable to the Proposed Allottees, for the acquisition of Sale Shares in Veranda Administrative Learning Solutions Private Limited ("VALSPL"), pursuant to a share swap, in accordance with the SEBI (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018 ("SEBI ICDR Regulations").

VALSPL, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“VLS”), entered into definitive agreements/binding term sheets for the acquisition of certain entities, as disclosed to the stock exchanges on May 22, 2023. Pursuant to these agreements, VALSPL completed the first tranche of acquisitions, with the consideration being discharged through a combination of cash and swap of VALSPL equity shares. These VALSPL shares were subsequently swapped with equity shares of VLS, in accordance with the approval granted by the shareholders on August 7, 2023, along with other requisite statutory approvals.

Further, in line with the terms of the definitive agreements, VALSPL has now completed the acquisition of the second and third tranches of sale shares in the respective entities. The consideration for these tranches was discharged through the issuance and allotment of equity shares by VALSPL, with the transaction being completed on May 16, 2025 (as detailed in the Company’s stock exchange intimation dated May 17, 2025).

In connection with the above, VLS is now seeking shareholders’ approval for the issuance and allotment of its equity shares to facilitate the swap of VALSPL equity shares held by the proposed allottees, as detailed in Item 02 of the resolution set out in the Notice of the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM).

These acquisitions are expected to generate significant synergies within VALSPL’s operations and are strategically aligned with the long-term objective of business consolidation and enhanced growth for VLS.

Further discharging consideration for the acquisition of shares through the issuance of equity shares (Share swap) offered several strategic advantages to the Company. Primarily, it allowed the Company to conserve cash resources, which will be redirected towards other operational or growth initiatives. This also aligns the interests of the acquired entity’s shareholders with those of the Company, as they become shareholders of the Company and, therefore, stand to benefit from the future performance and value creation of the combined business. This structure facilitates a smoother transaction process, where the acquired entity’s shareholders will have long-term value participation

rather than immediate liquidity. Overall, the share swap supports strategic consolidation while maintaining financial flexibility for the acquiring company.

Accordingly, the 30th day prior to the EGM falls on Sunday which is a non-trading day. In line with the Explanation provided under the SEBI ICDR Regulations, wherein it is clarified that if the relevant date falls on a weekend or a holiday, the day preceding such weekend or trading holiday shall be considered as the relevant date,i.e Friday, May 09th 2025 , being the preceding trading day, is taken as the “Relevant Date” for the purpose of computing the floor price.

7. Basis on which the price has been arrived at:

The Equity Shares of the Company are listed on Stock Exchanges viz. BSE Limited (“BSE”) and National Stock of Exchange of India Limited (“NSE”) (collectively referred to as the “ Stock Exchanges ”) and are frequently traded in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations.

For the purpose of computation of the price per Equity Share, NSE – being the stock exchange which has the highest trading volume in respect of the Equity Shares of the Company, during the preceding 90 Trading days prior to the relevant date has been considered. The price at which Equity Shares shall be allotted shall not be less than higher of the following:

The Articles of Association (AOA) of the Company do not prescribe a specific method for determining the floor price. However, Clause 11(1)(c) of the AOA requires the Company to obtain a valuation report from a registered valuer whenever it issues further equity shares. It is also pertinent to note that, in the case of a share swap, Regulation 163(3) of the SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, 2018 mandates the requirement of a valuation report. Accordingly, in compliance with both the AOA and the applicable SEBI ICDR regulation, the Company has obtained a valuation report from Ms Vandana Sankhala, Registered Valuer, Securities and Financial Assets, (Reg No: IBBI/RV/06/2019/11578), (ICAIRVO/06/RV-P0056/2019-20) situated at Alsa Towers, 07th Floor ,186/187 Poonamalleee High Road, Kilpauk, Chennai – 600 010

The Valuation Report is also hosted in the company website: - https://www.verandalearning.com/web/index.php/general meeting

Also, it is pertinent to note that as per the Regulation 166A of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, any preferential issue that may result in a change in control or involves an allotment of more than five per cent of the post-issue fully diluted share capital of the issuer, to a single allottee or to allottees acting in concert, mandates the requirement of a valuation report from an independent registered valuer, and such valuation is to be considered for determining the issue price. In the present case, since the proposed allotment does not result in any change in control and does not exceed five per cent of the post-issue fully diluted share capital of the Company to any allottee or allottees acting in concert, the Company is not required to comply with regulation 166A of the SEBI ICDR Regulations.

The Company has also obtained a Pricing certificate dated May 19, 2025, received from M/s. S Sandeep & Associates, Company Secretaries, certifying compliance with the floor price for the proposed preferential issue of the Company, based on the pricing formula prescribed under Chapter V of SEBI ICDR Regulations.

Necessary information/details in relation to the Preferential Issue as required under the SEBI ICDR Regulations and the Companies Act, 2013 (“Act”) read with the rules issued thereunder, are set forth below:

1. Particulars of the offer including date of passing of Board resolution

The Board, pursuant to its resolution dated 17[th] May 2025, has approved the proposed preferential issue of up to 11,85,984 (Eleven Lakhs Eighty-Five Thousand and Nine Hundred Eighty-Four) fully paid-up Equity Shares having a face value of Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten Only) each at a price of Rs. 221/- (Rupees Two Hundred and Twenty-one Only) per equity share including a premium of Rs. 211/- (Rupees Two Hundred and Eleven Only) per equity share for consideration other than cash which is not less than the floor price prescribed under Chapter V of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, on a preferential basis.

The consideration for the Preferential Issue is Rs. 26,21,02,500 (Rupees Twenty-Six Crores Twenty-One Lakhs Two Thousand Five Hundred only) towards the acquisition of 1059 (One Thousand Fifty-Nine) equity shares of Rs. 10/- (Rupees Ten Only) each of BB Publication Private Limited (“ BB Publication ”) ( “Sale Shares” ) from its existing shareholder, representing 10.59% equity stake, of BB Publication, from the existing shareholder who is the Proposed Allottee as detailed in the resolution at Item No. 03 of this Notice and the accompanying Explanatory Statement.

However, the actual consideration being discharged pursuant to this Preferential Issue of 11,85,984 (Eleven Lakhs Eighty-Five Thousand and Nine Hundred Eighty-Four) fully paidup Equity Shares having a face value of Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten Only) each at a price of Rs. 221/- (Rupees Two Hundred and Twenty-one Only) per equity share including a premium of Rs. 211/- (Rupees Two Hundred and Eleven Only) per equity share stands at Rs. 26,21,02,464 (Rupees Twenty-Six Crores Twenty-One Lakhs Two Thousand Four Hundred Sixty-Four only), on account of rounding adjustments as the company cannot issue fractional shares. The said difference of Rs. 36/- (Rupees Thirty-Six Only) will be appropriately adjusted in the books of accounts of Veranda Learning Solutions Limited (“the Company”) as capital reserves.

The Preferential Issue is being made in accordance with the applicable provisions of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, as amended, and is subject to receipt of necessary approvals from the stock exchanges and any other regulatory authorities, as may be applicable.

2. Object(s) of the Preferential Issue:

The Object of the proposed issue and allotment of upto 11,85,984 (Eleven Lakhs EightyFive Thousand Nine Hundred Eighty-Four) Equity shares of Rs.10/- (Rupees Ten only) each of the Company to the Proposed Allottee is to discharge the purchase consideration of Rs. 26,21,02,500 (Rupees Twenty-Six Crores Twenty-One Lakhs Two Thousand Five Hundred Only) payable to the Proposed Allottee, for the acquisition of Sale Shares in BB Publication Private Limited (“BB Publication”), pursuant to a share swap, in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations.

Veranda Learning Solutions Limited

BB Publication is a comprehensive online platform for providing lectures and study materials for CA and CMA aspirants. With over 12 years of teaching experience, CA Bhanwar Borana has mentored more than 2 lakh students and produced over 500 All India Rank Holders, establishing BB Virtuals as a trusted name in CA preparation. The platform is known for delivering high-quality, easily accessible test preparation resources tailored to the needs of aspiring CAs. With a strong focus on online delivery, BB Publication adds a digital dimension to Veranda’s offerings, catering to the growing demand for flexible, technology-driven learning solutions.

This acquisition complements Veranda Learning’s existing offerings, including the extensive network and legacy of J.K. Shah Classes, enabling a synergistic approach to expanding the reach of professional commerce courses.

The Board of Directors of VLS approved the acquisition of BB Publication Private Limited ("BB Publication") on December 11, 2024, and the same was duly intimated to the stock exchanges on the same date. The consideration for the acquisition of the first tranche of shares is structured as a combination of cash and share swap, through the issuance and allotment of equity shares of VLS.

The Company now seeks shareholders’ approval for the issuance and allotment of equity shares of VLS, on a preferential basis, to an existing shareholder of BB Publication as consideration other than cash for the acquisition of 10.59% of the equity share capital of BB Publication. This proposed issuance is in accordance with the provisions of Chapter V of the SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, 2018, the Companies Act, 2013, and other applicable laws.

It is important to note that a resolution in respect of the same transaction was previously placed before the shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on January 9, 2025, and was approved by the requisite majority. However, the proposed allottee subsequently became ineligible to receive a preferential allotment under Regulation 159(1) of the SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, 2018. Consequently, the Company did not act upon the earlier resolution.

The Company is now placing a fresh resolution before the shareholders for approval of the proposed preferential issue, in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Further discharging consideration for the acquisition of shares through the issuance of equity shares (Share swap) offered several strategic advantages to the Company. Primarily, it allowed the Company to conserve cash resources, which will be redirected towards other operational or growth initiatives. This also aligns the interests of the acquired entity’s shareholders with those of the Company, as they become shareholders of the Company and, therefore, stand to benefit from the future performance and value creation of the combined business. This structure facilitates a smoother transaction process, where the acquired entity’s shareholders will have long-term value participation rather than immediate liquidity. Overall, the share swap supports strategic consolidation while maintaining financial flexibility for the acquiring company.

==> picture [160 x 40] intentionally omitted <==

Veranda Learning Solutions Limited

For the purpose of computation of the price per Equity Share, NSE – being the stock exchange which has the highest trading volume in respect of the Equity Shares of the Company, during the preceding 90 Trading days prior to the relevant date has been considered. The price at which Equity Shares shall be allotted shall not be less than higher of the following:

The Articles of Association (“AOA”) of the Company do not prescribe a specific method for determining the floor price. However, Clause 11(1)(c) of the AOA requires the Company to obtain a valuation report from a registered valuer whenever it issues further equity shares. It is also pertinent to note that, in the case of a share swap, Regulation 163(3) of the SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, 2018 mandates the requirement of a valuation report. Accordingly, in compliance with both the AOA and the applicable SEBI ICDR regulation, the Company has obtained a valuation report from Vandana Sankhala, Registered Valuer, Securities and Financial Assets, (Reg No: IBBI/RV/06/2019/11578), (ICAIRVO/06/RVP0056/2019-20) situated at Alsa Towers, 07th Floor ,186/187 Poonamalleee High Road, Kilpauk, Chennai – 600 010.

The Valuation Report is also hosted in the company website: - https://www.verandalearning.com/web/index.php/general meeting

Also, it is pertinent to note that as per the Regulation 166A of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, any preferential issue that may result in a change in control or involves an allotment of more than five per cent of the post-issue fully diluted share capital of the issuer, to a single allottee or to allottees acting in concert, mandates the requirement of a valuation report from an independent registered valuer, and such valuation is to be considered for determining the issue price. In the present case, since the proposed allotment does not result in any change in control and does not exceed five per cent of the post-issue fully diluted share capital of the Company to any allottee or allottees acting in concert, the Company is not required to comply with regulation 166A of the SEBI ICDR Regulations.

The Company has also obtained a Pricing certificate dated May 19, 2025, received from M/s. S Sandeep & Associates, Company Secretaries, certifying compliance with the floor price for the proposed preferential issue of the Company, based on the pricing formula prescribed under Chapter V of SEBI ICDR Regulations.
