Subject: Intimation under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure

We wish to inform you that the Board of Directors of the Company, at its meeting held today, i.e.,
July 31, 2026 commenced at 11:30 a.m. and concluded at 12:00 p.m. has approved the acquisition
of the business of Equinox Impex (“EI”) on a slump sale basis, for an aggregate cash consideration
of Rs. 3,67,49,248.90/- (Rupees Three Crore Sixty-Seven Lakh Forty-Nine Thousand Two
Hundred Forty-Eight and Ninety Paise only), comprising Rs. 2,23,24,031.81/- (Rupees Two Crore
Twenty-Three Lakh Twenty-Four Thousand Thirty-One and Eighty-One Paise only) towards the
business undertaking excluding trademark and Rs. 1,44,25,217.09/- (Rupees One Crore Forty-
Four Lakh Twenty-Five Thousand Two Hundred Seventeen and Nine Paise only) towards the
trademark, on an arm’s length basis, as determined on the basis of the independent valuation
reports issued by Mr. Abhishek Chhajed, IBBI Registered Valuer, and such other approvals as may
be required. As set out in item 2 below, the said transaction is within the materiality threshold
prescribed under Regulation 23 of the SEBI LODR Regulations, 2015 and is also below the
threshold prescribed under Rule 15(3) of the Companies (Meetings of Board and its Powers)
Rules, 2014 and, accordingly, does not require the approval of the shareholders of the Company,
whether under the SEBI LODR Regulations or the Companies Act, 2013. The transaction has been
reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors of the Company at
their respective meetings held today.
The details as required pursuant to the SEBI Master Circular dated January 30, 2026
(SEBI/HO/49/14/14(7)2025-CFD-POD2/1/3762/2026) are as under:

2. Whether the acquisition would fall within related party transaction(s) and whether
the promoter/ promoter group/ group companies have any interest in the entity
being acquired? If yes, nature of interest and details thereof and whether the same is
done at “arm's length”:
Yes. Mr. Vaibhav Pravinchandra Shah, Managing Director of the Company, is the proprietor
of Equinox Impex and accordingly EI is a related party of the Company. The proposed
acquisition constitutes a related party transaction and is proposed to be undertaken on an
arm’s length basis. The value of the said transaction is within the materiality threshold
prescribed under Regulation 23(1) of the SEBI LODR Regulations, 2015 (being lower than
10% of the Company’s standalone annual turnover for FY 2025-26 of Rs. 81.94 crore, i.e.
Rs. 8.19 crore, or Rs. 50 crore, being the threshold applicable to a listed entity on the SME
segment, whichever is lower) and does not, therefore, constitute a ‘material related party
transaction’ within the meaning of Regulation 23 of the SEBI LODR Regulations, 2015. Since
the said transaction is at arm’s length, and the value of the transaction being Rs.
3,67,49,248.90/- is lower than 10% of the Company’s standalone net worth as per the last
audited balance sheet as at March 31, 2026 (net worth of Rs. 85.36 crore, i.e. 10% being Rs.
8.54 crore), or Rs. 100 crore, whichever is lower – being the threshold prescribed under
Rule 15(3) of the Companies (Meetings of Board and its Powers) Rules, 2014 for
transactions involving buying of property of any kind – the transaction also does not
require the approval of the shareholders of the Company by way of an ordinary resolution
under the first proviso to Section 188(1) of the Companies Act, 2013. The transaction has
accordingly been reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee and the Board of
Directors of the Company and does not require the approval of the shareholders of the
Company.
3. Industry to which the entity being acquired belongs:
Specialty Chemicals.
4. Objects and impact of acquisition (including but not limited to, disclosure of reasons
for acquisition of target entity, if its business is outside the main line of business of
the listed entity):
The proposed acquisition of the business undertaking of Equinox Impex (a sole
proprietorship concern engaged in the business of export of synthetic organic dyes) by
Shlokka Dyes Limited, by way of slump sale, is undertaken with the following objects:
(i) Business Synergy: Equinox Impex is engaged in the export trading of synthetic
organic dyes, which is closely aligned with and complementary to the Company's
existing manufacturing business. The acquisition will enable the Company to
integrate the export trading function with its manufacturing operations, resulting in
enhanced synergies across the value chain.

(ii) Elimination of Group Conflict of Interest / Consolidation of Promoter Group
Businesses: Equinox Impex is a group entity engaged in a similar/allied line of
business as the Company, and is managed by the same promoter/management group.
The acquisition will consolidate the business interests of the promoter group under
the listed entity, thereby avoiding potential conflicts of interest and duplication of
business opportunities between group entities.
(iii) Operational and Administrative Efficiency: The integration will eliminate
duplication of administrative, compliance, and support functions currently being
carried out separately by the two entities, resulting in cost savings and improved
operational efficiency.
(iv) Enhanced Customer and Market Access: The acquisition will bring Equinox
Impex's existing export customer relationships and market access directly under the
listed entity, thereby strengthening the Company's export revenue base and
geographic diversification.
(v) Not Outside the Main Line of Business: The business of Equinox Impex (export of
synthetic organic dyes) is in the same line of business as that of the Company
(manufacture of dyes and dye intermediates) and is not a diversification into an
unrelated business. Accordingly, the acquisition does not represent an entry into a
business outside the Company's main line of business.
(vi) Impact on the Company: The acquisition is expected to be earnings accretive,
augment the Company's export turnover and customer base, and strengthen its
overall competitive position, without any material adverse impact on the Company's
existing operations, financial position, or risk profile.
5. Brief details of any governmental or regulatory approvals required for the
acquisition:
Not Applicable.
6. Indicative time period for completion of the acquisition:
The transaction is expected to be completed within 30 days from the date of signing of BTA.
7. Consideration – whether cash consideration or share swap or any other form and
details of the same:
