Exchange, the regulated market (General Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and on the Vienna Stock Exchange (Official Market). The carrying value of investment by BAIHBV in PBAG is € 546.1 million.
In the current quarter ended 31 March 2023, the Company has accounted its share of six months consolidated profit of PBAG of € 37.53 million (` 331.16 crore) as the Company was unable to receive the quarterly
financial results of PBAG. This is due to the differences in the regulations between India and Europe on the frequency for publishing financial results by listed companies. In view of this, the Company has been informed by
PBAG, that the results of PMAG (included in PBAG) are required to be published on a six-monthly basis as per the stock exchange regulations applicable to PMAG, and hence are permitted to be shared with the Company
only as per that publishing calendar. The Company has now accounted for its share of consolidated profit for six months in the results for the current quarter ended 31 March 2023 as received from PBAG. The auditors of
the Company have modified their report in regard to this matter.

10 The Board of Directors at its meeting held on 27 June 2022 approved a proposal to buyback fully paid up equity shares of the Company having a face value of ` 10 each from the existing shareholders (except promoters,
promoter group and persons in control of the Company) from open market through stock market mechanism (i.e. through National Stock Exchange of India Limited and BSE Limited) at a maximum buyback price not
exceeding ` 4,600 per equity share and maximum buyback size up to ` 2,500 crore.
In this regard, the Company bought back 6,409,662 number of equity shares from the stock exchange at a volume weighted average buyback price of ` 3,900.31 per share comprising 2.22% of the pre-buyback number of
shares of the Company. The buyback resulted in a cash outflow of ` 2,499.97 crore (excluding transaction cost and tax on buyback). An amount of ` 582.39 crore was paid towards tax on buyback. In accordance with
relevant statutory provisions, the Company has created a capital redemption reserve of ` 6.41 crore, equal to the nominal value of shares bought back, as an appropriation from retained earnings.
The Buyback Committee of the Company, at its meeting held on 10 October 2022, approved the completion and closure of the buyback.
11 The Board of Directors recommend a dividend of ` 140 per equity share (1400%) subject to approval of shareholders
12 Figures for previous year / period have been regrouped wherever necessary.
13 The figures of the last quarter are the balancing figures between the audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date figures upto the third quarter of the current financial year, which were
subjected to a limited review.
14 The above results have been reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors in the meeting held on 25 April 2023.
