Subject: Disclosure under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and
Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015
Dear Sir/ Madam,
Background:
1. The Company vide its intimation dated January 1, 2026 under Regulation 30 of the SEBI
(Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (“SEBI Listing
Regulations”), inter-alia, informed that the Board of Directors, at its meeting held on
January 1, 2026, approved (a) Scheme of Arrangement involving Sapphire Foods India
Limited (‘SFIL’/ ‘Transferor Company’), a company listed on BSE Limited and the
National Stock Exchange of India Limited, Devyani International Limited (‘DIL’/
‘Transferee Company’/ ‘the Company’) and their respective shareholders, pursuant
to Sections 230 to 232 and other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013
(‘Scheme’); and (b) execution, delivery and performance of merger framework
agreement dated January 1, 2026, by and amongst the Transferor Company, the
Transferee Company, RJ Corp Limited (holding company), Sapphire Foods Mauritius
Limited (‘SFML’) and Sagista Realty Advisors Private Limited (Trustee of QSR
Management Trust) (promoters of the Transferor Company) which sets out the manner
of effecting the Scheme, including representations, warranties, rights and obligations of
the respective parties (‘Merger Framework Agreement’).
2. Pursuant to the Scheme, with effect from the Appointed Date, i.e. opening hours of April
1, 2026, the Transferor Company was proposed to be amalgamated with and absorbed
into the Transferee Company. Upon the Scheme becoming effective and in consideration
of the amalgamation, the Transferee Company shall issue and allot 177 (One Hundred
Seventy Seven) fully paid up equity shares of Re. 1/- each of the Transferee Company
for every 100 (One Hundred) fully paid up equity shares of Rs. 2/- each held by
shareholders of the Transferor Company.
3. In our earlier intimation dated January 1, 2026, we had also disclosed that the
effectiveness of the Scheme is conditional on the transfer by sale of 5,94,55,837 (Five
Crore Ninety Four Lakh Fifty Five Thousand Eight Hundred and Thirty Seven) fully paid
up equity shares of Rs. 2 (Rupees Two) each of the Transferor Company, by SFML to
Arctic International Private Limited, a group company (‘Arctic’), representing about
18.5% of the fully paid-up equity share capital of the Transferor Company (‘Secondary
Sale Transaction’).
Updates:
4. We would now like to intimate that Arctic has informed the Transferee Company that the share
purchase agreement between SFML and Arctic (‘SPA’) has been terminated by mutual agreement
of the parties, pursuant to commercial discussions. As a result, SFML would receive equity shares
of the Transferee Company in accordance with the Scheme, similar to the other shareholders of
the Transferor Company. Arctic has informed the Company that Arctic and SFML may continue
exploring a secondary transaction, which if agreed, may be undertaken at a later date, in
compliance with all applicable laws. It is clarified that the share exchange ratio and other terms
and conditions of the Scheme, as approved by the Board on January 1, 2026, remain unchanged
pursuant to the approval of the revised Scheme.
5. In view of the above, the Board of Directors of the Company at its meeting held today i.e. August
26, 2026 (commenced at 6:20 P.M. and concluded at 6:35 P.M.), based on the recommendations of
the Audit, Risk Management and Ethics Committee and the Committee of Independent Directors,
has inter-alia:
(a) Taken note of the termination of the SPA; and
(b) Approved the amended Scheme & amended and restated Merger Framework Agreement on
account of the termination of the SPA, including for the purpose of removing the
consummation of the Secondary Sale Transaction as a condition precedent to the
effectiveness of the Scheme.
The above changes will not have any impact on the shareholders of either the Transferor Company
or the Transferee Company, and hence the merger process will continue in the ordinary course
subject to the requisite approvals.
6. It is further clarified that pursuant to termination of the SPA, the Secondary Sale Transaction will
no longer take place. Hence, in S. No. 6 of Annexure I of the earlier intimation dated January 1,
2026, the post-Scheme shareholding of the promoter/ promoter group of the Company, as
disclosed in the Company’s intimation dated January 1, 2026, stands revised. The updated
shareholding table/ details will be as follows:

Prior to the Record Date for the Scheme, the shareholding pattern of the Transferor
Company will change on account of any ordinary course corporate actions undertaken by
the Transferor Company.
In view of the re-classification mentioned at point no. 7 of Annexure I of the earlier
intimation dated January 1, 2026, the shareholding of the Persons belonging to the
Promoter Group of the Transferee Company, in the Transferee Company, has been
considered in Public Category for the purpose of Post-merger shareholding pattern.
7. Other than as contemplated in paragraphs 1 to 6 above, the contents of the earlier intimation dated
January 1, 2026 remain applicable without modification.
You are requested to kindly take the same on record.
Yours faithfully,
