Item No. 1: Approval for Material Related Party Transaction(s) between Simon India Limited and Paradeep Phosphates Limited
Simon India Limited (“SIL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is engaged in the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) business and continuously explores new business opportunities and actively participates in tenders issued by companies in the chemicals, fertilizers, refinery and other sectors for EPC services. Paradeep Phosphates Limited (“PPL”), is engaged in the manufacturing of various types of fertilizers and is a related party of the Company.
During Financial Years 2024-25 and 2025-26, PPL floated multiple tenders, and SIL proposed to participate in and enter into contracts pursuant to such tenders. As the aggregate value of the transactions between SIL and PPL was expected to exceed 10% of the annual consolidated turnover of ZIL, approvals of the shareholders of ZIL for both Financial Years 2024-25 and 2025-26 were duly obtained.
Pursuant to the said approvals, SIL has participated / is participating in multiple tenders and has entered / will enter into various contracts with PPL.
Further, PPL is also expected to float various tenders during Financial Year 2026-27. SIL intends to participate in such tenders. The estimated aggregate value of contracts that may be entered into between SIL and PPL during Financial Year 2026-27 is up to Rs. 500 Crore.
As per SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) (Fifth Amendment) Regulations, 2025 read with Schedule XII of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (“SEBI Listing Regulations”), where the annual consolidated turnover of the listed entity, as per its last audited financial statements, is up to Rs. 20,000 Crore, a transaction with a related party shall be considered material if the transaction(s), individually or taken together with previous transaction(s) during a financial year, exceed 10% of the annual consolidated turnover of the listed entity.
In terms of Regulation 23(4) of the SEBI Listing Regulations, all material related party transactions require prior approval of the shareholders of the listed entity by way of an Ordinary Resolution.
Since the proposed RPTs to be entered into during Financial Year 2026–27, as stated above, are expected to exceed 10% of the annual consolidated turnover of the Company for the financial year ended 31 March 2025, they qualify as material RPTs under Regulation 23(4) of the SEBI Listing Regulations and accordingly require prior approval of the Shareholders of the Company.
