Paul Whole-Time Director Dear Friends, As I near the close of my present term, I do so with deep gratitude and quiet emotion. My journey with Popular has been one of the most meaningful chapters of my life. From the Company’s early years after its incorporation in 1983, and the award of the first Maruti Suzuki dealership in Kerala - having received the Letter of Intent from MSIL in 1983 itself and commencing operations in 1984 as part of Maruti Suzuki’s first batch of dealerships in India, I have had the privilege of witnessing an extraordinary transformation. Over the years, Popular has grown into a diversified automotive retail enterprise spanning passenger and commercial vehicles, as well as electric mobility, supported by a strong sales and service network. The Company’s entry into the public markets in March 2024 marked yet another defining milestone in this journey. What stays with me most, however, is not only the scale of this progress, but the values that shaped it - integrity, commitment, humility and enduring relationships. Having spent over five decades in the automobile sector, I feel privileged to have contributed to an institution built on trust and strengthened by the dedication of its people. As my present term comes to an end on 31 March 2026, I step back with pride, affection and confidence in the future of this Company. With warm regards, Francis K.
