holders; Record Dates; Transfer of Shares
We maintain a register of our shareholders holding equity shares in electronic form through the National Securities Depository Limited and the Central Depository Services (India) Limited and of our shareholders holding equity shares in physical form through our registrar and share transfer agents i.e., KFin Technologies Limited. For the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to annual dividends, if any, a record date or date of closure of transfer books is determined prior to the AGM of the shareholders. The Company is required to intimate the record date to all the stock exchanges where it is listed, inter alia, for the following purposes: the declaration of dividends, issuances of rights to equity or bonus shares, issuances of shares for conversion of debentures or any other convertible security, corporate actions such as mergers, demergers, splits and bonus shares, and buybacks. The SEBI Listing Regulations require us to give at least three working days’ prior notice to the stock exchanges before such record date, excluding the date of intimation and the record date. Additionally, the SEBI Listing Regulations prescribe that the Company shall ensure the time gap of at least five working days between two record dates.

In order to trade the equity shares in the Indian market, the withdrawing ADS holder will be required to comply with the procedures described above.
The equity shares of a public company are freely transferable, subject only to the provisions of Sections 56 and 58 of the Companies Act, 2013.
Pursuant to Section 59(4) of the Companies Act, 2013, if a transfer of shares contravenes any of the provisions of the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956, the Securities and Exchange Board of India Act, 1992 or the Companies Act, 2013, or the regulations issued thereunder, or the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 or any other Indian laws in force at the time, the NCLT may, on application made by the Company, a depositary incorporated in India, an investor, SEBI or other parties, direct the rectification of the register of records.
In accordance with the proviso to Regulation
