Exhicon Events Media Solutions Ltd has executed a Joint Venture Agreement with India Exposition Mart Limited (IEML) to develop the Mohali Convention & Exhibition Centre. The project, valued at ₹75 crore, is being undertaken through a special purpose vehicle on a public-private partnership model.

Under the agreement signed on September 21, 2026, Exhicon agreed to transfer 35% of its wholly owned subsidiary, Exhicon Mohali Convention Centre Private Limited (EMCCPL), to IEML. The consideration for the 52,500 equity shares is ₹5,25,000. Following the transfer, which remains subject to dematerialisation and regulatory formalities, EMCCPL will cease to be a wholly owned subsidiary but will continue as a subsidiary of Exhicon.

Governance and Ownership Structure

The Joint Venture Agreement outlines the rights and obligations of both partners regarding the ownership, management, and funding of EMCCPL. The post-transfer shareholding structure establishes a clear majority control for Exhicon while granting IEML significant minority protections.

Key Terms of the Agreement

The agreement stipulates that the Board of EMCCPL will comprise three directors. Exhicon retains the right to nominate two directors, while IEML may nominate one. This right continues as long as the respective partner holds at least 25% of the paid-up share capital. Specified affirmative-vote matters require prior written consent from IEML, ensuring minority protection in critical decisions.

Future capital requirements for the project will be contributed by the JV partners in proportion to their respective shareholdings through rights issues. The share transfer is governed by pre-emptive rights and other restrictions contained within the JVA.

What the Numbers Show

A notable divergence exists between the nominal equity transfer value and the total project cost. While the consideration for the 35% stake is merely ₹5,25,000, the projected cost of the convention centre is ₹75 crore. This disparity suggests that the initial equity contribution is minimal relative to the overall capital expenditure, implying that the bulk of the funding will likely be raised through debt or future proportional capital calls as outlined in the agreement. Additionally, EMCCPL was incorporated in April 2026 and contributed no revenue or net worth to Exhicon in FY26, indicating the venture is in its nascent stage.

Exhicon Events Media Solutions has scheduled its 16th Annual General Meeting for Thursday, September 24, 2026. The meeting will be held at 9:00 am at the company’s registered office in Pune.
