Proposed allottees and the swap

• Mr. Amber Pabreja holds 38,148 shares, or 21.71%, of GDPL, and is to be allotted 11,82,588 shares through the swap, holding the same after the swap, which is 2.39% of the post-allotment capital on a fully diluted basis.
• Ms. Devi Yeshodharan holds 28,000 shares, or 15.94%, of GDPL, and is to be allotted 8,68,000 shares through the swap, which is 1.75% of the post-allotment capital.
• Together, the two proposed allottees account for 20,50,588 shares, or 4.14% of the post-allotment capital.
• The swap ratio considered is 1:31. The actual calculation comes to 1:31.0368, and the balance fractional entitlement will be paid in cash.

Points for investors to note

• The shares are to be issued for consideration other than cash, under a share swap arrangement.
• Promoter and promoter group shares stay at 1,71,13,393, so their percentage holding moves from 36.50% to 34.53% — a 1.97% reduction — as new shares are issued.
• The update states there will be no change in the control or management of the Company pursuant to the proposed preferential issue, except for this 1.97% reduction in the percentage holding of the promoters.
• On a fully diluted basis, 6,24,950 outstanding ESOP granted shares are shown, at 1.26% of the post-issue capital.
• These disclosures were made following a suggestion received from the stock exchanges in connection with the company's in-principle application for the preferential issue.
