What the numbers show
The attendance data reveals a highly concentrated shareholder base. With only 99 shareholders recorded as of the cut-off date, the physical presence of just seven members represents approximately 7% of the total shareholder count. The dominance of promoter group members (4 out of 7 attendees) alongside three public shareholders suggests limited retail participation in the physical proceedings, a common characteristic for companies with low shareholding counts.
