Corporate governance and borrowing limits
The AGM granted several special resolutions aimed at enhancing the company's operational flexibility. These included approval for the enhancement of borrowing limits under Section 180(1)(c) of the Companies Act, 2013, and the enhancement of limits for creating charges on assets under Section 180(1)(a). Shareholders also approved increased limits for making investments, giving loans, guarantees, or providing securities under Section 186 of the Companies Act, 2013.
A material related party transaction involving availing a loan from Beta Resources Private Limited was also approved by the shareholders. This transaction required specific shareholder consent due to its nature as a related party deal.

What the numbers show
A distinct pattern emerged in the voting data regarding promoter participation. Despite holding 15,078,523 shares, the promoter and promoter group cast zero votes across all eight resolutions. Consequently, the entire voting weight of 50,649,897 shares was contributed by public non-institutional shareholders, representing approximately 20.22% of the total paid-up equity shares. This indicates that the outcomes were determined solely by minority shareholder consensus, with dissenting votes never exceeding 0.01% of the total votes polled.
