I understand from the RTA and our Company Secretary that the requisite quorum is present, hence, the proceedings of this Annual General Meeting can therefore commence. The Annual Report of your Company for the year ended 31 March 2026 has already been circulated along with the Notice of this Annual General Meeting to all shareholders whose email ID is registered with the RTA or Depository Participants. With the permission of the shareholders, I take as read the Auditors' Reports on the standalone and consolidated financial statements and the Secretarial Audit Report of the Company for the financial year ended 31 March 2026, since they do not contain any qualification, reservation, adverse remark, or disclaimer. Accordingly, these reports are not required to be read out, as provided under the Companies Act, 2013. I would now like to spend some time on the major developments of the year gone by. Despite geopolitical tensions, the global economy grew 3.4% in 2025 (up from the prior year), while India led major Asian economies at 7.6% growth (IMF), supported by strong macro fundamentals and sustained reforms. Your Company delivered a robust performance in this environment, with a significantly higher top line and strengthened consolidated equity. Your Company remains India's only listed pure-play, AI-driven, multi-brand digital media and technology enterprise, engaging audiences through innovative content and emerging technologies. Our commitment to fearless, independent journalism — guided by "Question Everything" — was recognised in FY 2025-26 through the Laadli Media Awards, INMA Global Media Awards, SOPA Awards, and WAN-IFRA South Asian Digital Media Awards, among others. Following Members' approval to amend the Object Clause, the Company entered hospitality and lifestyle content through an exclusive franchise agreement with Time Out Group to launch Time Out India, including: • A lease for Delhi's first Time Out Market, with exclusive rights to develop Time Out Markets across India • Time Out Media India, a digital city guide now live in Delhi and Mumbai, covering food, drink, arts, culture, and events • Time Out Market Delhi, the flagship destination, currently under launch This marks the Company's entry into a new experiential business segment, diversifying revenue beyond core digital media. At group level, effective from October 1, 2025, Quintype Technologies Inc. became a subsidiary of the Company. Prior to this, it operated as a joint venture. Your Company continues to explore flexible business models, including joint ventures, franchises, and revenue-sharing arrangements, as it scales the Time Out India platform and remains agile and responsive to evolving market opportunities.
