per section 55 (2) of the Act, Preference Shares can be redeemed out of the profits of the Company which would otherwise
be available for dividend. The Company does not have divisible profits which would be available for distributing dividend.
Thus the Company is not able to redeem the existing preference shares as per section 55(2) of the Act. Consequently, in
pursuance of sub-section (3) of section 55 of the Act, the management of the Company has submitted a petition to the
Hon’ble National Company Law Tribunal, Ahmedabad (“NCLT”) on 3rd August, 2022 seeking permission to issue further
9,81,500 ½ % Non-cumulative redeemable preference shares of Rs. 100 each in lieu of the existing Preference Shares i.e.
9,81,500- ½ % Non-cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs. 100 each. The Company is awaiting direction from NCLT
for disposal of petition and receiving direction in this regard.
I further report that:
The Board of Directors of the Company is duly constituted with the proper balance of Executive Directors, Non-Executive
Directors and Independent Directors. There were no changes in the composition of the Board of Directors during the period
under review.
Adequate notice is given to all directors to schedule the Board Meetings, agenda and notes on agenda were sent in advance
and a system exists for seeking and obtaining further information and clarifications on the agenda items before the meeting
and for meaningful participation at the meeting.
During the Audit Period, all decisions at Board Meetings and Committee Meetings were carried out unanimously.
I further report that there are adequate systems and processes in the Company commensurate with the size and operations of
the Company to monitor and ensure compliance with applicable laws, rules, regulations and guidelines.
I further report that during the audit period the company had no event or action which has a major bearing on the Company’s
affairs in pursuance of the above referred laws, rules, regulations, guidelines, standards, etc.
