(10) Adoption of new set of Articles of Association of the Company
With the coming into force of the Companies Act, 2013, several provisions of the existing Articles of Association (AoA) of the Company require alteration or deletion. Accordingly, the Company has proposed to replace the entire existing AoA.
ITNL proposes to have flexibility to infuse additional capital, to tap capital markets and to raise additional long term resources. Therefore the company seeks to issue securities in both domestic and international capital market to meet its working capital needs, augment long term finances and to pre-pay/repay debt. This is an enabling resolution that gives powers to the board for a year to raise funds after determining the form and terms of issuance, number of securities to be issued at each tranche, issue price, face value and discount on securities. The company will price the securities as per the SEBI (ICDR) guidelines. In case the company shall raise the entire Rs.10.0 bn through QIP issue, at the current market price of Rs.147.1 the company would have to issue ~68 mn shares: this would result in an equity dilution of 21.6% on the post issuance share capital of the company.
