Other Events
On April 26, 2010, the Company announced that the board of directors of the Company had recommended
|
|
a dividend of Rs. 3.75 per equity share, par value Rs. 2 per equity share (the Rs. 2 Shares),
|
|
|
|
a split of each of the Companys Rs. 2 Shares into two equity shares, par value Re. 1 per equity
share (the Re. 1 Shares), and
|
|
|
|
a bonus issue of the Companys Re. 1 Shares (sub-divided) in the ratio of 1:1.
|
in each case subject to the approval of the Companys shareholders. The Company
expects to pay the dividend by June 16, 2010. The Company intends to announce
the record and effective date for the stock
split and bonus issue following the annual general meeting of the Companys shareholders to be held on June 11,
2010. If the bonus issue and stock split are approved, each Rs. 2 Share held by a shareholder of
the Company on the applicable record date will automatically convert into four Re. 1 Shares. As a
result of the change of its ADS-to-equity share ratio, the Company does not intend to issue
additional ADSs or split its ADSs in connection with the bonus issue and stock split. A copy of
the press release dated May 25, 2010 is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein
by reference.
