Ref. : Stock (Dish TV India) - GDR-MIC - XLOM
Dear Sir / Ma'am,
This is in continuation to Company intimations dated May 15, 2023, June 01, 2023, June 28, 2023, July 19, 2023, and July 21, 2023, in relation to communications calling an Extraordinary General Meeting ('EGM') by certain shareholders, decisions of the Board in this regard and request for list of Shareholders of the Company along with their details.
On July 21, 2023, the Company received a communication from Vis Legis, purportedly acting on behalf of 92 shareholders of the Company, calling upon the Company to provide a list of shareholders of the Company along with their registered addresses, e-mail IDs, and number of shares held, in terms of the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 to enable them to call an Extra-Ordinary General Meeting ("Communication"). Necessary intimation in this regard was filed by the Company with the Stock Exchanges on July 21, 2023.
This is to inform you that the Board of Directors of the Company at their meeting held today, i.e., July 28, 2023, considered the aforesaid Communication received on July 21, 2023.
Based on the advice obtained from an independent legal expert on this issue, the Board noted that as there was no failure on part of the Board in not calling the EGM, since the requisition received by the Company on June 29, 2023, was not 'Valid' as the same was not in compliance with the statutory requirements of Section 100 of the Companies Act, 2013. Accordingly, the Board concluded that the request for the shareholders details made by Vis Legis vide its communication dated July 21, 2023, not being in terms of the applicable regulatory provisions, cannot be acceded to.
You are requested to kindly take the above on record.
Thanking You,
Yours truly,
For Dish TV India Limited
