During the year under review, the Company undertook a comprehensive evaluation of the performance of the Board of Directors, its Committees and of each individual Director, including the Chairman, in accordance with the provisions of Section 178(2) of the Companies Act, 2013 and the applicable requirements of Regulations 17, 19 and 25 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The evaluation exercise was carried out in line with the Governance Practices adopted by the Company to ensure effectiveness and accountability in the functioning of the Board.

The process of evaluation was facilitated through a structured questionnaire prepared after taking into consideration the nature of the Companys business, industry requirements and the expectations placed upon the Board. The questionnaire sought responses on various parameters such as attendance and participation in meetings, quality of contribution during deliberations, ability to provide strategic direction and guidance to the Management, and the extent to which Directors bring in perspectives and insights beyond the information shared by the Companys executives. This approach ensured that the assessment covered both quantitative and qualitative aspects of performance.

The Nomination and Remuneration Committee (NRC) assisted the Board in framing and reviewing the evaluation criteria. For the Board and its Committees, the criteria included aspects such as appropriateness of composition, clarity of roles and responsibilities, effectiveness of processes, degree of independence in judgment, and interaction with the Management. The performance of individual Directors, including Independent Directors, was assessed with respect to professional conduct, integrity, knowledge, competency, preparedness for meetings and meaningful contribution to discussions. In the case of the Chairman, specific parameters such as leadership qualities, ability to provide overall guidance to the Board and the Management, and commitment to long-term value creation for stakeholders were also considered.

f. Remuneration & Nomination Policy

The Company has formulated a comprehensive policy for the selection, appointment and remuneration of its Directors, Key Managerial Personnel (KMPs) and Senior Management.

• To recommend fair and balanced remuneration for Directors, KMPs and Senior Management;

• To align compensation with individual performance, commitment and contribution to the Companys growth;

• To attract, nurture and retain competent talent, ensuring continuity of leadership and long-term value creation for stakeholders.

The Policy has been duly approved by the Board and is hosted on the Companys website at www.logicainfoway.com.

g. Risk Management Policy

Risk management forms an integral part of the Companys overall business strategy. The Board of Directors periodically reviews compliance with risk management policies, monitors risk tolerance levels, evaluates exposure to key risks, and provides strategic oversight to ensure effective risk governance across the organization.

Pursuant to Regulation 21 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, the constitution of a Risk Management Committee is mandatory only for the top 1000 listed entities. Further, the SEBI (LODR) (Amendment) Regulations, 2024 (effective December 31, 2024) have omitted the earlier requirement that such determination be based on market capitalization as at the end of the immediately preceding financial year. Since the Company does not fall within the top 1000 listed entities, a separate Risk Management Committee has not been constituted. The Audit Committee of the Board oversees and assists in the risk management process.
