Nature of Business

As on 31st March, 2026, the Company was primarily engaged in the business of real estate development.

Scheme of Arrangement and Corporate Restructuring

(i) Composite Scheme of Amalgamation and Arrangement

During the year under review, pursuant to Composite Scheme of Amalgamation and Arrangement between the Company (“Amalgamated Company”/”Demerged Company”), Esteem Properties Private Limited (“EPPL”/ “Esteem”/ “Amalgamating Company”) and Advent Hotels International Limited (“AHIL”/“Advent”/”Resulting Company”) and their respective shareholders and creditors under Sections 230 to 232 read with Section 52 and 66 and other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Scheme”), EPPL, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company merged with the Company and the Company demerged its hospitality business (including the assets of EPPL under hospitality vertical) into a separate legal entity - Advent.

The Honble National Company Law Tribunal (“NCLT”), Mumbai approved the Scheme vide its order dated 12th June, 2025 and the Scheme became effective from 1st July, 2025.

In terms of the Scheme, the paid-up capital of 8% Redeemable Preference Shares (“RPS”) of the Company was reduced by way of a reduction in face value, whereby every 1 RPS having a face value of Rs. 10/- each was reduced to 1 RPS having a face value of Rs. 9/- each. Subsequent to the reduction, the RPS were consolidated such that every 10 RPS having a face value of Rs. 9/- each were consolidated into 9 RPS having a face value of Rs. 10/- each. Further, pursuant to the demerger of the Hospitality Business, Advent issued and allotted 1 fully paid-up equity share and 1 RPS, each having a face value of Rs. 10/-, for every 10 fully paid-up equity shares and RPS of Rs. 10/- each, respectively, held by the shareholders of the Company as on the Record Date, i.e. 18th July, 2025.

The equity shares of Advent were subsequently listed and admitted to trading on BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited with effect from 13th November, 2025.

The restructuring under the Scheme has enabled the Company and Advent to pursue their respective businesses with greater focus and operational efficiency. The Company will continue to focus on its core real estate business in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), leveraging its competencies in land aggregation, securing clear land titles and undertaking development in partnership with established developers. The real estate sectors inherent market dynamics and capital structure imperatives fundamentally differ from the hospitality sector. The demerger has enabled each entity to implement its bespoke strategy, focus on its core business, and make capital allocation decisions. This strategic separation was intended to facilitate the realisation of the value of each business for the benefit of the shareholders. The Scheme would unlock value of the Hospitality Business for existing shareholders of the Demerged Company through independent, market-driven valuation of their shares in the Resulting Company which was listed pursuant to the Scheme.

(ii) Merger of Sahyadri Agro and Dairy Private Limited with Horizontal Ventures Private Limited

During the year under review, a Scheme of Merger (“the Scheme”) was entered into between Sahyadri Agro and Dairy Private Limited (“SADPL”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Horizontal Ventures Private Limited (“HVPL”/ “Horizontal”), and Horizontal, a step-down subsidiary of the Company. The Scheme was filed with the Honble NCLT, Mumbai on 7th October, 2025.

This merger eliminated a multi-layered holding structure by consolidating legacy companies, enhanced operational and administrative synergies, and reduced duplicative legal and regulatory compliance requirements. The Honble NCLT, Mumbai Bench, pronounced and made its final order dated 29th January, 2026 sanctioning the Scheme. The Scheme became effective from 12th March, 2026 and the appointed date for the amalgamation of SADPL with Horizontal was 1st April, 2025.

Variation of 8% Redeemable Preference Shares into Compulsorily Convertible Preference Shares and Conversion of Equity Shares and Redemption of the balance Redeemable Preference Share

The Company had, in the past, pursuant to the Scheme of Amalgamation of Gokuldham Real Estate Development Company Private Limited (“GRED”), an erstwhile subsidiary of the Company, with the Company, approved by the Honble High Court vide its orders dated 16th October, 2015 and 27th October, 2015, allotted 574 fully paid-up 8% Redeemable Preference Shares (“RPS”) of the face value of Rs. 10/- each for every 1 fully paid-up equity share held by the shareholders of GRED. Pursuant to the aforesaid Scheme, 7,17,50,000 RPS were allotted to Konark Realtech Private Limited (“KRPL”), a non-promoter of the Company on 6th February, 2016, along with minuscule portion (5,166 RPS of Rs. 10/- each) to other promoter group shareholders.

Pursuant to the demerger of the Hospitality Business of the Company into Advent Hotels International Limited, the face value of the RPS was reduced and the RPS were subsequently consolidated in accordance with the Scheme. Consequently, the aforesaid 7,17,50,000 RPS held by KRPL stood reduced to 6,45,75,000 RPS, each having a face value of Rs. 10/-.

Thereafter, pursuant to the approval of the shareholders of the Company by way of a special resolution passed at the Extra- Ordinary General Meeting held on 12th December, 2025, and the in-principle approvals dated 24th December, 2025 issued by the National Stock Exchange of India Limited and BSE Limited (collectively, the “Stock Exchanges”), the Company (i) varied the terms and nature of 6,45,75,000 8% RPS held by KRPL and issued and allotted an equivalent number of 6,45,75,000 0.0001% CCPS, having a face value of Rs. 10/- each, to KRPL on 26th December, 2025; and (ii) the aforesaid 6,45,75,000 CCPS were converted into 32,02,330 fully paid-up equity shares of the face value of Rs. 10/- each on 2nd February, 2026 at a conversion price of Rs. 201.65 per equity share (including a premium of Rs. 191.65 per share) as determined as per SEBI (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018.

The said equity shares were listed and admitted to trading on the Stock Exchanges with effect from 23rd March, 2026, pursuant to the approval letters dated 20th March, 2026. During the last quarter, the remaining 5,166 RPS of the face value of Rs. 10/- each held by Promoter Group which were not varied/changed into CCPS were redeemed at par by the Company in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the rules made thereunder. Consequent to the conversion of the aforesaid CCPS into equity shares and redemption of the remaining RPS, the preference share capital of the Company stood reduced to Nil as on 31st March, 2026.

The aforesaid conversion was effected without any cash outflow by the Company and enabled the Company to replace the redeemable preference capital with permanent equity capital. The conversion thereby eliminated the future requirement for deployment of funds towards redemption of the RPS and enabled the Company to conserve its financial resources. Overall, the conversion and redemption resulted in simplification of the Companys capital structure by eliminating the outstanding preference share capital and strengthening its permanent equity base.
