The Proposed Transaction
The Board of Directors of the Company at its meeting inter alia, has approved the Scheme of Arrangement between the Company and its shareholders under Sections 230 to 232 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("Scheme"), which, inter-alia, provides for issuance and allotment of cumulative non-convertible redeemable preference shares ("NCRPS") by way of bonus.
