| Shareholder Category | Shares Held | Votes Polled | % of Votes Polled | Votes In Favor | Votes Against |

Resolutions passed
The following ordinary and special resolutions were adopted:
- Adoption of audited financial statements for FY26 along with Board and Auditor reports.
- Re-appointment of Kedar Mal Ladha as Director, who retired by rotation.
- Re-appointment of Rahul Singhvi as Independent Director (Special Resolution).
All resolutions passed with 100% of the votes polled in favor. The promoter group's participation was critical to achieving quorum and majority, as they accounted for over 99% of the total votes cast.
What the Numbers Show
The voting data reveals a significant concentration of control and low public engagement. While there were 54,874 registered shareholders, only 32 individuals or entities participated in the physical or proxy voting process. Furthermore, institutional investors holding nearly one-third of the company's share capital (12.18 million shares) abstained from voting entirely. Consequently, the outcome of every resolution was determined almost exclusively by the promoter group, whose 13.71 million shares represented 99.96% of the total votes polled.
How will the complete abstention by institutional investors holding 32% of shares impact future governance reforms or activist campaigns at Modern Denim Limited?
What strategic shifts in board composition or dividend policy might emerge given the promoter group's absolute control over all voting outcomes?
Could the low retail shareholder engagement and lack of institutional oversight lead to increased regulatory scrutiny regarding minority shareholder protection?
