The Board of Directors Axel Polymers Limited 309, Village Mokshi, Sankarda-Savli Road, Taluka Savli, Vadodara, Gujarat - 391780 India

The Board of Directors Ohara Petrochemicals Private Limited 38, Gautam Nagar Society, Race Course, Vadodara, Gujarat- 390007 India

Dear Sir(s)/ Madam(s),

Sub: Recommendation of share exchange ratio for the proposed amalgamation of Ohara Petrochemicals Private Limited into Axel Polymers Limited.

We, MSKA & Associates, Chartered Accountants ('MSKA' or 'We' or 'Us'), have been appointed vide letter dated August 01, 2019 to recommend the share exchange ratio for the amalgamation of Ohara Petrochemicals Private Limited ('DPPL') into Axel Polymers Limited ('Axel') (collectively referred as 'the Companies'). We are pleased to present herewith our report on the same.

The cut-off date for the present valuation exercise has been considered as June 30, 2019 ('Valuation Date'). A summary of the analysis is presented in the accompanying report, as well as description of the methodology and procedure we used, and the factors we considered in formulating our opinion.

We believe that our analysis must be considered as a whole. Selecting portions of our analysis or the factors we conSidered, without considering all factors and analysis together could create a misleading view of the process underlying the valuation conclusions. The preparation of a valuation is a complex process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. Any attempt to do so could lead to undue emphasis on any particular factor or analysis. This letter should be read in conjunction with the attached report.

Thanking you,

For MSKA & Associates Chartered Accountants F.R.N. 105047W

4. Sources of Information

  • 4.1. For the purpose of undertaking this valuation exercise, we have relied on the following sources of information provided by the management! representatives of the Companies:
  • Audited financial statements of the Companies for Financial Year ('FY') 2017-18;
  • Audited financial statements of Axel for FY 2018-19;
  • Provisional financial statements of DPPL for FY 2018-19;
  • Limited Review unaudited financial statements of Axel for three months period ended June 30, 2019 submitted to BSE;
  • Extract of Balance Sheet of Axel as on June 30,2019;
  • Provisional financial statements of DPPL for three months period ended June 30, 2019;
  • Latest shareholding pattern as on the Valuation Date of the Companies;
  • Draft computation of income tax for Axel and DPPL for the Assessment Year 2019-20;
  • List of contingent liabilities of the Companies and its current status;
  • Other relevant data and information provided to us by the representatives of DPPL and Axel either in written or oral form or in form of soft copy of the Companies;
  • Information provided by leading database sources (proprietary databases subscribed by us or our network firm), market research reports and other published data (including on NSE and BSE); and
  • Draft scheme of arrangement for the Proposed Transaction.

5. Procedures Adopted

  • 5.1. In connection with this exercise, we have adopted the following procedures:
  • Requested and received financial and qualitative information;
  • Obtained data available in public domain;
  • Undertook industry analysis such as researching publicly available market data including economic factors and industry trends that may impact the valuation. Further, analysis of key trends and comparable companies was undertaken.
  • Discussion (physical/over call) with the management to understand the business and fundamental factors that could affect its earning-generating capability including strengths,

  • Selection of internationally accepted valuation methodologY/lies) as considered appropriate by us. Our valuation, and this report, is based on the premise of going concern value. Any change in the valuation base, or the premise could have significant impact on our valuation exercise, and therefore, this Report.
  • Determination of share swap ratio.

6. Valuation Approaches

  • 6.1. The Proposed Amalgamation scheme contemplates the merger of the Companies pursuant to the scheme of Amalgamation under sections 230 to 232 of the Companies Act, 2013 and other relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. Arriving at the share exchange ratio for the Proposed Amalgamation would require determining the relative values of each company. These values are to be determined independently but on a relative basis, and without considering the effect of the Proposed Amalgamation.
  • 6.2. It is pertinent to note that the valuation of any company or its assets is inherently imprecise and is subject to certain uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult to predict and are beyond our control. In performing our analysis, we made certain assumptions with respect to industry performance and general business and economic conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the companies. In addition, this valuation will fluctuate with changes in prevailing market conditions, and prospects, financial and otherwise, of the Companies, and other factors which generally influence the valuation of companies and their assets.
  • 6.3. The application of any particular method of valuation depends on the purpose for which the valuation is done. Although different values may exist for different purposes, it cannot be too strongly emphasized that a valuer can only arrive at one value for one purpose. Our choice of methodology of valuation has been arrived at using usual and conventional methodologies adopted for transactions of a similar nature and our reasonable judgment in an independent and bona fide manner based on our previous experience of assignments of a similar nature.
  • 6.4. It may be noted that the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India ('ICAI') on June 10, 2018 has issued the ICAI Valuation Standards ('IVS'). IVS 301 on Business Valuations deals with valuation of a business or business ownership interest (i.e. it includes valuation of equity shares). We have given due cognizance to the same in carrying out the valuation exercise.
  • 6.5. The cut-off date for the current valuation exercise has been considered as June 30, 2019 and market factors have been considered till August 19,2019.
  • 6.6. There are the following three valuation approaches which are internationally accepted and provided in the IVS:
  • (a) "Market" Approach
  • (b) "Cost" Approach
  • (c) "Income" Approach

Market Approach

Under the Market Approach, the valuation is based on the market value of the company in case of listed companies and comparable companies trading or transaction multiples for unlisted companies. The Market Approach generally reflects the investors' perception about the true worth of the company.

Market Price ("MP") Method

Under this method, the market price of an equity share of the company as quoted on a recognized stock exchange is normally considered as the fair value of the equity shares of that company where such quotations are arising from the shares being regularly and freely traded. The market value generally reflects the investors' perception about the true worth of the company.

Comparable Companies Multiples ("CCM") Method

This valuation approach is based on the principle that market valuations, taking place between informed buyers and informed sellers, incorporate all factors relevant to valuation. The value is determined on the basis of multiples derived from valuations of comparable companies, as manifest in the stock market valuations of listed companies. Relevant multiples need to be chosen carefully and adjusted for differences between the circumstances.

Comparable Transactions Multiples ("CTM") Method

The valuation is undertaken on the basis of multiples derived from valuations of similar transactions in the industry in the near history. Relevant multiples have to be chosen carefully and adjusted for differences between the circumstances. This valuation approach is based on the principle that market valuations, taking place between informed buyers and informed sellers, incorporate all factors relevant to valuation.

Cost Approach

The Cost Approach, also known as the Asset-based Approach, involves methods of determining a company's value by analyzing the market value of a company's assets.

Net Asset Value ("NAV") Method

The Net Asset Value ("NAV") method under cost approach, consider the assets and liabilities, including intangible assets and contingent liabilities. The net assets, after reducing the dues to the preference shareholders, if any, represent the value of the company or firm.

This valuation approach is used where the business requires reasonable amount of capital expenditure and working capital.

Income Approach

The income approach is widely used for valuation under "Going Concern" basis. It focuses on the income generated by the company in the past as well as its future earning capability. The

Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Method under the income approach seeks to arrive at a valuation based on the strength of future cash flows.

Discounted Cash Flow ("DCF") Method

Under the DCF method, the business is valued by discounting its free cash flows for the explicit forecast period and the perpetuity value thereafter. The Free Cash Flows to Firm ("FCFF") represent the cash available for distribution to the owners as well as lenders of the business and the Free Cash Flows to Equity ("FCFE") represent the cash available for distribution to the owners of the business. The free cash flows to firm are discounted by the Weighted Average Cost of Capital ("WACC") and the free cash flows to equity are discounted by the Cost of Equity ("Ke"). The WACC or Ke, based on an optimal vis-a-vis actual capital structure, is an appropriate rate of discount to calculate the present value of the future cash flows as it considers risk of the firm.

The perpetuity (terminal) value is calculated based on the business's potential for further growth beyond the explicit forecast period. The "Constant Growth Model" is applied, which implies an expected constant level of growth for perpetuity in the cash flows over the last year of the forecast period.

The discounting factor (rate of discounting the future cash flows) reflects not only the time value of money, but also the risk associated with the business's future operations. The Business/Enterprise Value (aggregate of the present value of explicit period and terminal period cash flows) so derived, is further reduced by the value of debt, if any, (net of cash and cash equivalents) to arrive at value to the owners of the business.

7. Conclusion on Valuation Approach

7.1 . In · order to consider reasonable methods for the valuation exercise, we have referred to the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations 2018 ('SEBI ICDR Regulations') as amended from time to time and the specific information/explanations available of the Companies. We have considered the following respective methods for the valuation of the companies for the Proposed Amalgamation:

Axel: Discounted Cash Flow Method under the Income Approach has been considered since its value lies in the future earning potential. The shares of Axel are not frequently traded on BSE Ltd as per the definition provided in SEBI ICDR Regulations, hence we have not considered market price approach for valuation. We have not used Comparable Companies Multiple method considering the specialized nature of the business of Axel and paucity of comparable companies. We have not used CTM method for valuation of Axel due to paucity of comparable transactions. We have not considered valuation as per Cost Approach for arriving at the equity value of Axel, since its value lies in its overall business model rather than its asset base. In light of the above, we have used the Discounted Cash Flow Method for the valuation of Axel.

DPPL: Discounted Cash Flow Method under the Income Approach has been considered since its value lies in the future earning potential. DPPL is not listed on any stock exchange, hence market price method is not considered. Comparable Companies Multiple method could not be used for valuation of DPPL due to lack of appropriate listed comparable companies in India. We have not used CTM method for valuation of DPPL due to paucity of comparable transactions. We have not considered valuation as per Cost Approach for arriving at the equity value of DPPL, since its value lies in its overall business model rather than its asset base. In light of the above, we have used the Discounted Cash Flow Method for the valuation of DPPL.

Basis of Share Exchange Ratio

  • 7.2. The basis of the share exchange ratio for the Proposed Amalgamation would have to be determined after taking into consideration all the factors and methods mentioned hereinabove. Though different values have been arrived at under each of the above methods, for the purposes of recommending the share exchange ratio, it is necessary to arrive at a final value for the shares of each company. It is, however, important to note that in doing so, we are not attempting to arrive at the absolute values of the Companies, but at their relative values to facilitate the determination of the share exchange ratio.
  • 7.3. The share exchange ratio has been arrived at on the basis of a relative equity valuation of the Companies based on the various approaches/methods explained herein earlier and various qualitative factors relevant to each company and the business dynamics and growth potentials of the businesses of the Companies, having regard to information base, key underlying assumptions and limitations.
  • 7.4. The equity shares of the listed company i.e. Axel in the Proposed Transaction is infrequently traded as per the provisions of SEBIICDR Regulations on a recognized stock exchange (i.e. BSE) during the twelve calendar months preceding the Report date.
  • 7.5. Attention may also be drawn to Regulation 158 of the SEBI ICDR Regulations which specifies that issue of equity shares to shareholders of an unlisted entity pursuant to a National Company Law Tribunal approved scheme shall conform with the pricing provisions of preferential issue specified under Regulation 165 of the ICDR Regulations. Further it may be noted that Regulation 165 specifies that the price determined by the issuer for infrequently traded listed shares shall take into account the valuation parameters including book value, comparable trading multiples, and such other parameters as are customary for valuation of shares of such companies. In the Proposed Amalgamation inter-alia, DPPL (an unlisted entity) is proposed to be amalgamated with Axel (listed entity). We have accordingly, given due cognizance to the applicable SEBI ICDR Regulations while arriving at the value of Axel.
  • 7.6. We have independently applied methods discussed above, as considered appropriate, and arrived at their assessment of value per share of the Companies. To arrive at the consensus on the fair

equity share exchange ratio for the Proposed Amalgamation, rounding off have been done in the values.

8. Major factors that were considered during the valuation

  • 8.1. The equity shares of Axel are not frequently traded;
  • 8.2. Key operating! financial parameters of the Companies; and
  • 8.3. Business plan of the Companies;

9. Conclusion

9.1. In the ultimate analysis, valuation will have to involve the exercise of judicious discretion and judgment taking into account all the relevant factors. There will always be several factors, e.g. present and prospective competition, yield on comparable securities and market sentiments etc. which are not evident from the face of the balance sheets, but which will strongly influence the worth of a share. This concept is also recognized in judicial decisions. For example, Viscount Simon Bd in Gold Coast Selection Trust Ltd. vs. Humphrey reported in 30 TC 209 (House of Lords) and quoted with approval by the Honorable Supreme Court of India in the case reported in 176 ITR 417 as under:

"If the asset takes the form of fully paid shares, the valuation will take into account not only the terms of the agreement but a number of other factors, such as prospective yield, marketability, the general outlook for the type of business of the company which has allotted the shares, the result of a contemporary prospectus offering similar shares for subscription, the capital position of the company, so forth. There may also be an element of value in the fact that the holding of the shares gives control of the company. If the asset is difficult to value, but is nonetheless of a money value, the best valuation possible must be made. Valuation is an art, not an exact science. Mathematical certainty is not demanded, nor indeed is it possible."

5. COMMENTONTHEVALUATION

Market Approach

Under the Market Approach, the valuation is based on the market value of the company in case of listed companies and comparable companies trading or transaction multiples for unlisted companies. The Market Approach generally reflects the investors' perception about the true worth of the company.

This valuation approach is based on the principle that market valuations, taking place between informed buyers and informed sellers, incorporate all factors relevant to valuation.

Net Asset Value ("NAV") Method

The Net Asset Value ("NAV") method under cost approach, consider the assets and liabilities, including intangible assets and contingent liabilities. The net assets, after reducing the dues to the preference shareholders, if any, represent the value of the company or firm. This valuation approach is used where the business requires reasonable amount of capital expenditure and working capital.

Income Approach

The income approach is widely used for valuation under "Going Concern" basis. It focuses on the income generated by the company in the past as well as its future earning capability. The Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Method under the income approach seeks to arrive at a valuation based on the strength of future cash flows.

Discounted Cash Flow ("DCF") Method

Under the DCF method, the business is valued by discounting its free cash flows for the explicit forecast period and the perpetuity value thereafter. The Free Cash Flows to Firm ("FCFF") represent the cash available for distribution to the owners as well as lenders of the business and the Free Cash Flows to Equity ("FCFE") represent the cash available for distribution to the owners of the business. The free cash flows to firm are discounted by the Weighted Average Cost of Capital ("WACC") and the free cash flows to equity are discounted by the Cost of Equity ("Ke"). The WACC or Ke, based on an optimal vis-A-vis actual capital structure, is an appropriate rate of discount to calculate the present value of the future cash flows as it considers risk of the firm.

The perpetuity (terminal) value is calculated based on the business's potential for further growth beyond the explicit forecast period. The "Constant Growth Model" is applied, which implies an expected constant level of growth for perpetuity in the cash flows over the last year of the forecast period.

The discounting factor (rate of discounting the future cash flows) reflects not only the time value of money, but also the risk associated with the business's future operations. The Business/Enterprise Value (aggregate of the present value of explicit period and terminal period cash flows) so derived, is further reduced by the value of debt, if any, (net of cash and cash equivalents) to arrive at value to the owners of the business.

As the shares of Axel are not frequently traded on BSE Ltd as per the definition provided in SEBI (SAST) 2011 Regulations, market price approach for valuation has not been considered. Comparable Companies Multiple method has also not considered due to specialized nature of the business of Axel. Similarly Comparable Transactions Multiples method has not been used due to paucity of comparable transactions. Since its value lies in its overall business model rather than its asset base, Cost Approach (NA V) Method has not been used.

In the light of the above, Discounted Cash Flow Method for the valuation of Axel. Discounted Cash Flow Method under the Income Approach has been considered for DPPL since its value lies in the future earning potential.

6. RECOMMENDATION OF SHARE EXCHANGE RATIO

The share exchange ratio has been arrived at on the basis of a relative equity valuation of the Companies based on the various approaches/methods explained herein earlier.

As stated in the valuation report, the Valuer has recommended the following share swap ratio:

901 (Nine Hundred and One) equity shares of INR 10/ - each fully paid up of Axel to be issued for every 100 (One Hundred) equity shares of INR 10/ - each fully paid up of DPPL.

Based on the information including Valuation Report and the propose Scheme of Amalgamation we are of the opinion that, the Share Exchange Ratio as recommended by M/ s MSKA & Associates, Chartered Accountants is fair and reasonable.

LIMITED REVIEW REPORT

To, The Board of Directors, Axel Polymers Limited 309, Mokshi, Sankarda - Savli Road, Taluka : Savli, Vadodara - 391780

We have reviewed the accompanying statement of Unaudited Financial Results of Axel Polymers Limited for the Quarter ended September 30, 2020. This statement is the responsibility of the Company's Management and has been approved by the Board of Directors. Our responsibility is to issue a report on these financial statements based on our review.

We conducted our review of the statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagement (SRE) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data a.nd thus provide less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Based on our review conducted as above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying statement of unaudited financial results prepared in accordance with applicable Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS), as prescribed under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with relevant Rules and other recognized accounting practices .and policies has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 201S, as modified by Circular No. CIR/CFD/FAC/62/2016/ dated July 5, 2016, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

We have not audited or reviewed the financial results and other information for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 which have been presented solely based on the financial information compiled by the manage ment.
