Meeting Details
The EGM was held on 04th September, 2026, through Video Conferencing (VC) or Other Audio-Visual Means (OAVM) at 12:30 PM. The record date for determining shareholder eligibility to vote was 28th August 2026. On this date, there were 80,995 shareholders on record.
Shareholder Participation
A total of 48 shareholders attended the meeting via video conferencing, comprising 3 from the Promoter and Promoter Group and 45 from the Public. The document notes that physical attendance was 'Not Applicable', indicating the meeting was conducted entirely remotely.
Proposed Resolutions and Implications
Three special resolutions were considered and approved:
Resolution 1: Raising Funds via Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds (FCCBs)
This resolution sought shareholder approval to raise capital by issuing FCCBs, a instrument that converts into equity, potentially diluting existing ownership but providing foreign currency funding.
Resolution 2: Approval of Overall Borrowing Limits under Section 180(1)(c) of the Companies Act, 2013
This resolution authorizes the company to undertake borrowings beyond the paid-up capital and free reserves, up to a limit set by the shareholders, providing financial flexibility.
Resolution 3: Authorization to Create Charges on Properties under Section 180(1)(a) of the Companies Act, 2013
This resolution empowers the Board of Directors to mortgage or charge the company's movable and immovable properties as security for borrowings.
The document explicitly states that the Promoter and Promoter Group were not interested in any of these resolutions, meaning they did not have a conflicting personal interest in the outcomes.
