DSM Fresh Foods Limited has scheduled its 1st Extra-Ordinary General Meeting (EGM) for July 25, 2026, to seek shareholder approval for obtaining loans, guarantees, and securities up to an aggregate limit of ₹100 Crores. The approval is sought under Section 185 of the Companies Act, 2013, which governs loans to directors and related entities. The meeting will be conducted through Video Conferencing (VC) or Other Audio-Visual Means (OAVM) to facilitate remote participation.

The Board of Directors, during its meeting on June 26, 2026, approved the proposal to grant financial assistance to entities in which directors may be interested. This includes subsidiaries, associate companies, or joint ventures. The proposed limit of ₹100 Crores is intended to provide operational flexibility for funding requirements such as business expansion, working capital, and capital expenditure without requiring repeated shareholder approvals for individual transactions.

To ensure procedural compliance, the Board has appointed M/s Kanika & Associates, Practising Company Secretary, as the Scrutinizer for the e-voting process. The remote e-voting period commences on July 22, 2026, at 9:00 A.M. (IST) and concludes on July 24, 2026, at 5:00 P.M. (IST). Shareholders who do not vote remotely may cast their votes during the EGM.

The company has fixed Saturday, July 18, 2026, as the cut-off date for determining the eligibility of members to vote. Consequently, the Register of Members and Share Transfer Books will remain closed from July 19, 2026, to July 23, 2026 (both inclusive). The results of the voting will be announced within two working days of the close of the voting period and will be hosted on the company's website.
