The issue will not dilute the shareholding of the President of India in the company by more than 3.76 per cent of the post-issue paid-up equity share capital, according to the postal ballot notice.

The company anticipates growth opportunities in its existing operations and continues to evaluate various avenues.

Towards this, the company continues to require capital for achieving such growth.

The company has proposed to raise additional capital to augment its capital base to meet future capital requirements, onward lending and general corporate purposes, as may be permissible under applicable laws and as approved by the board of directors.

The schedule of implementation and deployment of proceeds will be subsequently approved by the Board at the relevant time.

The remote e-voting on the resolution will begin on Friday, February 13, 2026, at 09:00 am and will end on Saturday, March 14, 2026, at 05:00 pm.
