excellence.

Entering FY 2026-27 with strong momentum, the
Company remains focused on strengthening its
operational capabilities, expanding its product portfolio
and delivering long-term value for all stakeholders, while
continuing to navigate external challenges including
geopolitical developments, cost pressures and supply
chain uncertainties.

KEY BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS

During FY 2025-26, the Company undertook several
key initiatives, including strategic acquisitions, capacity
expansion and technology investments, to strengthen its
operations and expand its product portfolio.

A. Change of Name and Alteration of MOA &
AOA

Pursuant to the Board’s approval on February
2, 2026 and shareholders’ approval via Special
Resolution through Postal Ballot on March 12, 2026,
the Registrar of Companies approved the change
of the Company’s name from ‘Shriram Pistons &
Rings Limited’ to ‘SPR Auto Technologies Limited’,
effective April 2, 2026. The new name was adopted
to better align with the Company’s broader
business profile and expanded scope of operations
across multiple product segments and state of art
technologies.

This transition to SPR Auto Technologies Limited
marks a defining milestone in our evolution into
a multi-product, multi-domain auto components
supplier. This identity embodies our strategic
vision to build a future-ready, technology-led
business franchise, positioned to deliver integrated
solutions across the automotive ecosystem.

To align with this diversification and ensure
compliance with the Companies Act, 2013 (‘the
Act’), shareholders also approved by Postal Ballot
on March 12, 2026, the adoption of a new set of
Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Articles
of Association (AOA). The amendment to the
Main Object Clause of the MOA, confirmed by the
Ministry of Corporate Affairs on March 27, 2026,
enables the Company to broaden its operations
and pursue synergistic opportunities. Replacement
of the erstwhile MOA and AOA framed under the
Companies Act, 1956 was necessary to bring the
Company’s constitutional documents fully in line
with current statutory provisions.

The updated MOA and AOA are available on the
website of the Company at
