Additionally, they will endorse a share swap ratio of 1:1 for the acquisition and approve the final agreement. The newly formed entity resulting from the acquisition will be named ‘Rastra Asha Laghubitta Bittiya Sanstha Limited’. The AGM will also address the amendment of the Articles of Association, granting full authority to the board of directors to modify various acquisition-related proceedings based on instructions from regulatory bodies.
Moreover, during the AGM, the approval of a 15% dividend worth Rs. 3.9 Crores for the fiscal year 2078/79 will be sought. In a previous meeting held on Baisakh 13, the board of directors had decided to distribute 14.25% bonus shares amounting to Rs. 3.7 crores and a 0.75% cash dividend worth Rs. 19.50 lakhs from the paid-up capital of Rs. 26 Crores.
