("PPL"), collectively made a mandatory open offer, by filing a
public announcement dated July 13, 2018 to carry out the
following:

A. A mandatory open offer for acquisition of up to
197,025,660 equity shares of face value of INR 10 each
in FHL, representing additional 26% the Expanded
Voting Share Capital of FHL, at a price of not less than

Board of India ("SEBI") (Substantial Acquisition of

Regulations"); and

B. In light of the acquisition of the controlling stake of

In the FY 2024-25, Malar has declared & paid interim
dividend of INR 40 per equity share and final dividend of
INR 2.50 per equity share to its shareholders. Pursuant
to such declaration and in terms of Regulation 8(9) of
the SEBI (SAST) Regulations, Acquirer and Persons
Acting in Concert ("PACs") have decided to adjust Malar
Open Offer price from INR 60.10 per equity share to
INR 17.6 per equity share.

On October 16, 2025, the Malar made a Disclosure
in respect of the announcement made by IHH
Healthcare Berhad ("IHH") dated October 16, 2025
on the Malaysian Stock Exchange (i.e. Bursa Malaysia)
regarding the Malar Open Offer (open offer price was
revised from the original open offer price of INR 60.10

shareholders of the Company, the Malar Open Offer
has been completed on November 10, 2025.

The Hon'ble Supreme Court of India had on December
14, 2018, passed an order ("Status Quo Order") directing
"status quo with regard to sale of the controlling stake in
Fortis Healthcare to Malaysian IHH Healthcare Berhad
be maintained". In light of the Status Quo Order, Fortis

order dated November 15, 2019, the Hon'ble Supreme
Court had issued suo-moto contempt notice to,
among others, FHL and directed its Registry to register
a contempt petition regarding alleged violation of the
Status Quo Order ("Contempt Petition").

Petitions before the Hon'ble Supreme Court including
Contempt Petition have been disposed of vide
judgement dated September 22, 2022 ("Judgement").

No finding of contempt has been made against FHL or
its independent directors. Based on legal advice, FHL
is of the clear view that the Status Quo Order dated
December 14, 2018, no longer exists.

In the Judgement, Hon'ble Supreme Court has passed
certain directions, inter-alia, that the Hon'ble High
Court of Delhi may consider issuing appropriate
process and appointing forensic auditor(s) to analyze
the transactions entered into between FHL and RHT
and other related transactions. The stated position of
FHL is that these transactions were done in compliance
with applicable laws, post requisite corporate and
regulatory approvals and necessary disclosures/
announcements. Currently, it is vehemently opposing
the application before the High court for appointment
of forensic auditor.
