Bank Details on Dividend Warrants

In case shareholders have not opted for the ECS facility for payment of dividend
or if the ECS facility is not available in the area in which they reside, please
furnish your bank particulars so that the same may be incorporated in the
dividend warrant as a security measure. This is a safeguard against the
fraudulent encashment of dividend warrants.

Accordingly, in the case of shareholders holding shares in physical form, we


request that Bank Account Number, name and address of the Bank’s branch
where the shareholder has his/her account, be provided to the Bank or our
Registrar and Share Transfer Agent viz. Cameo Corporate Services Limited
immediately without waiting for the date fixed for payment of dividend.

In the case of shareholders holding shares in dematerialised form, the Bank


Account details given to your Depository Participant (DP), will be used by the

change / correct Bank Account details , you are requested to contact your DP.
