Talking about why ESG reporting is important, Mrs. Binani added, "ESG reporting allows stakeholders to understand the
goals and targets of the Company. It holds Board and stakeholders accountable for their behavior regarding ESG issues and
brings confidence to the claims made by the Company.

performance or other social or governmental practices."
