BY THE BOARD OF ITS OWN PERFORMANCE, ITS

The Board of Directors conducts an annual formal
evaluation of its own performance, as well as that
of its Committees and individual directors using a
comprehensive evaluation framework. This framework
includes self-assessment by directors, peer review,
committee performance review, and overall board
performance review. The evaluation covers various
aspects of the Board''s and committees'' functioning, as
well as individual contributions.
The process is conducted through questionnaires, and
the responses are compiled and analysed to identify
strengths, areas for improvement, and action plans.
The performance of the Board and its committees
is assessed based on factors such as composition,
structure, attendance, process effectiveness,
information flow, and skills. Individual directors are
evaluated based on attendance, time commitment,
adherence to the code of conduct, fulfilment of their
duties, and contributions to committee and board
meetings.

Directors, the Chairperson, and the Board as a whole
is evaluated by Independent Directors in a separate
meeting, considering feedback received from all
directors. The performance evaluation of individual
directors, conducted without the presence of the
director being evaluated, is reviewed and discussed
by the Board, taking into account the feedback from
the Nomination & Remuneration Committee and
Independent Directors.
The board evaluation for the year has provided valuable
insights into the strengths and areas for improvement.
Building on the observations from the previous year
and the actions taken, the proposed actions for the
current year aim to enhance the board''s effectiveness,
composition, and strategic oversight. These steps will
ensure that the board continues to provide strong
governance and guidance to the company.
