Sub: Intimation under Regulation 30 of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (‘SEBI Listing Regulations’)

Dear Sirs,

The Board at its Meeting held today, i.e. 13[th] March, 2025, has approved transfer of overseas branches of the Company (‘Voltas’) at Dubai and Abu Dhabi in UAE to Universal MEP Contracting L.L.C. (‘UMCL’), Dubai, UAE, a wholly owned subsidiary of Universal MEP Projects Pte Limited (‘UMPPL’), a step down wholly owned subsidiary of Voltas in the Republic of Singapore.

Accordingly, Voltas would transfer the Ongoing Projects and Projects under Defects Liability Period (‘DLP’) of Dubai and Abu Dhabi branches to UMCL respectively, as a going concern on a slump sale basis along with its related assets and liabilities, the relevant employees, PreQualifications (PQs), etc. The transfer of the aforesaid projects would be through Business Transfer Agreements (‘BTAs’) to be executed between Voltas and UMCL. The completed projects of these two branches would continue to remain in Voltas and would be closed and reported to the Authorized Dealer and the Reserve Bank of India, if required.

As earlier reported from time to time, the internal re-structuring of overseas business operations of the Company, including transfer of shareholding of overseas subsidiaries / joint ventures (which has since been completed and reported) is primarily to house the international business operations of the Company under a separate entity, i.e. UMPPL, Singapore. With consummation of the BTAs as referred to above, the branch business operations of Voltas in Dubai and Abu Dhabi relating to ongoing projects and projects under DLP, would also get housed under UMPPL.

As UMPPL is a step down wholly owned subsidiary of Voltas, the economic interest of Voltas remains intact at a consolidated level as Voltas continues to remain the Ultimate Parent Company.

The relevant details as required under SEBI Listing Regulations read with relevant SEBI circular are provided in the enclosed Annexure.

The Board Meeting commenced at 10:30 a.m. and concluded at 4.00 p.m.

This is for your information and records. The above information is also being made available on the Company’s website at www.voltas.com.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,

For Voltas Limited
