The Company presently has ordinary shares and Class B Convertible Ordinary Shares (“Class B Shares”) with par value of $0.0005 per share. The terms of issue generally provide that the Class B Shares issued to any shareholder will have the same powers and relative participation rights as ordinary shares of the Company and shall vote together with ordinary shares as a single class on all matters on which the Company shareholders are entitled to vote, except as required by applicable law. The Class B Shares will be convertible into an equal number of ordinary shares, which shall be fully paid, non-assessable and free of any preemptive rights, of the Company on demand at the election of the holder, and will be automatically converted into an equal number of ordinary shares upon the transfer of Class B Shares to another party.

 

During the year ended March 31, 2025, the Company purchased 236,012 ordinary shares pursuant to share repurchase plan from the open market at the prevailing market price amounting to USD 21,722, including directly attributable cost.

Mauritian law mandates that any dividends shall be declared out of the distributable profits, after having set off accumulated losses at the beginning of the accounting period and no distribution may be made unless the Group’s board of directors is satisfied that upon the distribution being made (1) the Company is able to pay its debts as they become due in the normal course of business and (2) the value of the Company’s assets is greater than the sum of (a) the value of its liabilities and (b) Company’s stated capital. Should the Company declare and pay any dividends on ordinary shares, such dividends will be paid in USD to each holder of ordinary shares and Class B shares in proportion to the number of shares held to the total ordinary shares and Class B shares outstanding as on that date.

 

In the event of liquidation of the Company, all preferential amounts, if any, shall be discharged by the Company. The remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed to the holders of Class B shares at par with ordinary shares in proportion to the number of shares held to the total ordinary shares (including Class B shares) outstanding as on that date.
