Dear Sir,

I, P. N. Parikh, of M/s Parikh Parekh & Associates, Practising Company Secretaries (Membership No. FCS 327), having my office at 111, 11th Floor, Sai Dwar CHS Ltd., Sab TV Lane, Opp. Laxmi Industrial Estate, Off Link Road, Andheri (West), Mumbai - 400053, have been appointed as the Scrutinizer to scrutinize the evoting process for the Postal Ballot through electronic voting (‘remote e-voting’) conducted by the Company in respect of the following Special Resolution:
| 1. | Appointment of Mr. Punit Sood (DIN: 00033799) as an Independent Director with effect from October 1, 2024 |
pursuant to the Postal Ballot Notice dated October 26, 2024, issued under Section 110 read with Section108 and other applicable provisions, if any, of the Companies Act, 2013 including any statutory modification or re-enactment thereof for the time being in force) (the ‘Act’) read with Rule 20 and Rule 22 of the Companies (Management and Administration) Rules, 2014, as amended from time to time (the ‘Rules’), read with General Circular No. 14/2020 dated April 08, 2020; General Circular No. 17/2020 dated April 13, 2020 and other relevant circulars, including General Circular No. 09/2024 dated September 19, 2024 issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India (hereinafter collectively referred to as “MCA Circulars”) and the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (“Listing Regulations”), and pursuant to other applicable laws and regulations.
In terms of the MCA Circulars, the Postal Ballot Notice dated October 26, 2024 along with statement setting out material facts under Section 102 of the Act in respect of the above mentioned resolution, as confirmed by the Company, was sent, in electronic form only to those Members whose e-mail addresses were registered with the Company/Depositories/Registrar and Share Transfer Agent and whose names were recorded in the Register of Members of the Company or in the Register of Beneficial Owners maintained by the Depositories as on Monday, October 28, 2024 (‘Cut-Off date’).
The Company had availed the remote e-voting facility offered by KFin Technologies Limited (“KFintech”) for conducting remote e-voting by the shareholders of the Company.
The shareholders of the Company holding shares as on the ‘Cut-Off’ date of Monday, October 28, 2024 were entitled to vote on the resolution as contained in the Notice.
The voting period for remote e-voting commenced on Thursday, October 31, 2024, at 9:00 a.m. (IST) and ended on Friday, November 29, 2024, at 5:00 p.m. (IST). The remote e-voting module was disabled by KFintech thereafter.
The votes cast under remote e-voting facility were thereafter unblocked.
I have scrutinized and reviewed the votes cast through remote e-voting based on the data downloaded from the e-voting system of KFintech and have maintained a register in which necessary entries have been made in accordance with the Rules.
The Management of the Company is responsible to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Act, Rules made thereunder and the MCA Circulars relating to remote e-voting on the Resolution contained in the Postal Ballot Notice.
My responsibility as scrutinizer for the postal ballot through remote e-voting is restricted to making a Scrutinizer’s Report of the votes cast in favour or against the resolution.
I would like to mention that the voting rights of Members were in proportion to their share of the paid-up equity share capital of the Company as on the Cut-Off date i.e. Monday, October 28, 2024 and as per the Register of Members of the Company/List of Beneficial Owners of the Company as received from the depositories/Company’s Registrar and Share Transfer Agent.
Further, I would also like to mention that Shareholders who have split their votes into Assent as well as Dissent in respect of each DP ID/Client ID or Folio No., while their votes are taken as cast, they have been counted only once for the purpose of their presence, which has been mentioned under the head Assent.
I now submit my Report on the results of the voting by postal ballot only through the remote e-voting process in respect of the said Special Resolution as under:
