Furthermore, CESC Limited is seeking shareholder approval to grant loans or advances, including book debt, to its subsidiary, Purvah Green Power Private Limited, up to an aggregate amount not exceeding ₹900 Crores. These funds are intended to be utilized by Purvah for its principal business activities. The e-voting period for these resolutions will commence on February 28, 2026, at 9:00 AM IST and conclude on March 29, 2026, at 5:00 PM IST.
