Network People Services Technologies Limited has issued a postal ballot notice seeking shareholder approval for amending its existing Employee Stock Option Policy. The company will conduct the voting process exclusively through remote e-voting under Regulation 44 of SEBI Listing Regulations.

Voting Schedule and Process

The e-voting process has been scheduled with specific timelines for shareholder participation:

The Board of Directors approved the proposal on February 11, 2026, based on recommendations from the Nomination and Remuneration Committee. Only shareholders whose names appear in the Register of Members as on the cut-off date will be eligible to vote.

ESOP Policy Amendment Details

The proposed amendment seeks to modify the existing "NPST ESOP 2023" policy, which will be renamed "NPST ESOP 2023 (AMENDED)" upon approval. The amended policy is designed to serve as a long-term incentive mechanism to reward and retain key talent.

Key Features of the Amended Scheme

Eligibility and Vesting Structure

The scheme applies to permanent employees, Directors (excluding Independent Directors), and employees of holding/subsidiary companies. Promoters and Promoter Group members are excluded from participation.

The amended policy introduces a hybrid vesting structure:

• Years 1-2: 100% time-based vesting
• Year 3 onwards: 50% time-based and 50% performance-based vesting

The maximum number of options granted to any employee in a financial year cannot exceed 1% of the issued equity share capital as on the grant date.

Exercise Price and Implementation

The exercise price will be set at the closing market price on the grant date, with the Nomination and Remuneration Committee having discretion to specify a lower price (ranging from 30% to 100% of fair market value), subject to compliance with applicable laws.

The scheme will be implemented directly by the company and administered by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, involving new share issuance rather than secondary acquisition through a trust structure.

Regulatory Compliance

The amendment complies with Section 62(1)(b) of the Companies Act, 2013, and SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits and Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021. The company will follow prescribed accounting policies under Regulation 15 and relevant accounting standards issued by regulatory authorities.

Shareholders can access the complete notice and voting instructions on the company's website at www.npstx.com , as well as on NSE and BSE websites.
