MARKET ANALYSIS

CRUDE TANKER MARKET

Crude tanker earnings commenced FY26 on a firm footing and strengthened further through the year. The market was supported by robust
underlying supply-demand fundamentals, incremental volumes moving on the mainstream non-sanctioned fleet and elevated geopolitical
risk premiums. The war in West Asia towards the end of FY26 further disrupted the crude tanker markets, leading to unprecedented levels
of earnings.

OPEC proceeded with the unwinding of voluntary crude oil production cuts, with approximately 2.5 mbpd of additional crude oil supply
being released. A meaningful portion of these incremental barrels became visible in seaborne exports from Q3 FY26 onwards. Concurrently,
new upstream developments in Brazil and Guyana further augmented export availability. As a result, crude oil production in the Middle East
expanded by approximately 6%, while South American production grew by about 8%, reinforcing global export flows and supporting crude
tanker demand.

Prior to the escalation of the West Asia crisis in March 2026, the global oil market was characterized by a supply surplus, driven by strong
production growth relative to demand. China played a key role in absorbing part of this surplus through strategic stockpiling, thereby
supporting tonne-mile demand. Additionally, India began reducing its dependence on Russian crude during January-February 2026,
increasing imports from the Middle East and the Atlantic Basin.

Towards Q4 FY26, the crude tanker market also experienced a notable shift in ownership structure, with increased fleet concentration in the
large tanker segments led by prominent market participants. Market conditions were further supported by increased loadings of Venezuelan
crude on the mainstream fleet following geopolitical developments and easing constraints on exports.

Building on these favourable dynamics, tanker earnings rose sharply following the escalation of conflict in the Middle East and the resulting
disruption to vessel transits through the Strait of Hormuz, which temporarily constrained crude oil flows equivalent to approximately 14
mbpd (about 30% of global seaborne crude trade). While alternative measures - including diversion of Saudi Arabian exports, strategic
stock releases and partial relaxation of sanctions on Russia and Iran - helped mitigate supply shortages, these measures were insufficient
to fully replace lost volumes. Notwithstanding the reduction in trade volumes, tanker markets remained supported by vessel dislocation and
increased demand for replacement barrels from long-haul sources in the Atlantic Basin, which together contributed to elevated freight rates
during the period.

Overall, global seaborne dirty (crude and fuel oil) trade grew by approximately 3% y/y in FY26, with West-to-East long-haul trade increasing
by about 6%. During the same period, the global crude tanker fleet expanded by only around 1% in nominal terms, while demolition activity
remained negligible. This modest fleet growth, combined with steady demand expansion and periodic geopolitical disruptions, resulted in a
constructive supply-demand balance for the crude tanker market through the year.

PRODUCT TANKER MARKET

Relative to the elevated levels observed over the previous two years, product tanker earnings started FY26 on a softer footing but
strengthened progressively during H2 FY26. Market conditions remained comparatively stronger West of Suez than in the East, reflecting
regional imbalances in supply, demand, and trade flows.

Higher newbuilding deliveries in the LR2 and MR segments kept a lid on earnings during H1 FY26, as incremental fleet supply outpaced
demand growth. While overall trade volumes remained largely flat, tonne-miles declined due to approximately 30% increase in transits via
the Suez Canal, supported by the absence of vessel-related incidents in the Bab al Mandeb Strait. This normalization of routing reduced
voyage distances compared to the disruptions observed in prior periods.

During H2 FY26, United States refinery utilisation remained elevated, and the absence of weather-related shutdowns during January-
February 2026 resulted in a 12% y/y increase in refined product exports from the United States. In addition, the strength in crude tanker
markets led to approximately 90 LR2 vessels (around 15% of the global LR2 fleet) switching to dirty trades, thereby tightening effective
supply in the product tanker segment and providing support to earnings.

The conflict in West Asia had a significant impact on global product markets, with export flows through the Strait of Hormuz coming to a
near standstill. Gulf producers typically export around 3.4 mbpd of refined products, representing approximately 15% of global product
trade. More than 3 mbpd of refining capacity in the region was shut due to the conflict, while refinery runs across Asia were curtailed
due to feedstock availability constraints. The disruption resulted in a decline of approximately 2.4 mbpd of trade in March 2026, creating
dislocations across regional product balances.

Overall, seaborne product trade volumes remained flat y/y in FY26. While the product tanker fleet grew by approximately 4% y/y in nominal
terms, LR2 vessels switching to dirty trades created effective fleet tightness in the latter half of FY26.

The table below captures the market spot earnings of LR1 and MR product tankers over the financial year (in $/day).

OUTLOOK

The short-term tanker market outlook remains highly uncertain, with the duration of conflict in the Middle East and transit levels through the
Strait of Hormuz set to remain the key drivers of market dynamics.

Higher oil prices and a softer macroeconomic environment may weigh on demand across parts of the refined product spectrum. At the same
time, adjustments in trade flows and inventory management by consuming regions are expected to continue influencing tanker utilisation
in the near term. While disruptions to Middle Eastern export flows have affected regional supply balances, increased long-haul movements
from alternative exporting regions may provide partial support to tonne-mile demand.

Over the medium term, a gradual recovery in production and export activity in the region, together with potential stock rebuilding by
importing countries, could support tanker demand. Increasing ownership concentration among large tanker operators has also contributed
to improved commercial discipline across key segments, supporting earnings resilience during periods of supply-side disruption.

Meanwhile, the tanker orderbook has seen a sharp uptick, particularly for crude tanker with orderbook at approximately 20% of fleet (vs 11%
last year). Product tanker orderbook stood at around 19% of the fleet.

LPG CARRIER MARKET

The VLGC market experienced a strong recovery during FY26, with earnings improving materially y/y. The key driver was the escalation of
trade conflict between the United States and China, which led to a significant redrawing of global LPG trade routes. U.S. LPG volumes were
increasingly directed towards the Far East, India, and South-East Asia, while China diversified its sourcing towards the Middle East Gulf
(MEG), Canada, and Australia. These trade realignments materially increased tonne-mile demand during a year characterised by moderate
vessel deliveries. In addition, a moderation in the U.S. export terminal fees allowed shipowners to capture a larger share of the U.S.-Asia
arbitrage, further supporting VLGC earnings during the year.

Chinese VLGC LPG imports declined by about 10% y/y in FY26, as China was unable to fully replace lost U.S. volumes following the imposition
of tariffs. In contrast, India recorded a healthy 9% growth in LPG imports, primarily driven by resilient residential and commercial demand.
North-East Asian imports increased by 3% y/y, while South-East Asian imports grew by a stronger 9%, supported by rising energy demand.

Export growth in FY26 was led by the U.S., where LPG exports increased by 5% y/y, aided by rising domestic production and subdued local
consumption.

On the other hand, MEG LPG exports declined by approximately 6% y/y. This was largely driven by a sharp reduction in March 2026 volumes
following disruptions to flows through the Strait of Hormuz amid the escalation of conflict in West Asia.

Nominal VLGC fleet supply grew by approximately 3.5% in FY26, representing a more balanced supply environment following higher vessel
deliveries in the preceding two fiscal years.

The table below captures the market spot earnings of VLGC over the financial year (in $/day).

ASSET VALUES

Crude and product tanker asset prices strengthened over FY26. Values have gained between 15% and 35% in FY26 depending upon the
age profile and the type of the vessel.

ASSET VALUES

Stronger VLGC earnings translated into sustained asset value strength, with second-hand values holding at historically high levels despite
macro and geopolitical uncertainties.

OUTLOOK

The short-term outlook for the VLGC market remains sensitive to developments in the Middle East, particularly transit conditions through
the Strait of Hormuz, which is a vital corridor for global LPG trade. Import-dependent markets such as India and China remain exposed to
potential adjustments in supply from the Middle East Gulf region, although alternative sourcing from the United States and other exporting
regions may partially mitigate disruptions. However, given the scale of demand in these markets, fully bridging potential supply gaps may
remain challenging. Continued growth in U.S. LPG export capacity is expected to support incremental long-haul trade flows over the medium
term.

Increased eastbound movements of crude oil, LPG and refined products from the U.S., partly reflecting adjustments in trade flows following
disruptions in the Middle East Gulf region, may also increase competition for Panama Canal transit slots. This could limit VLGC transits
through the Canal and support tonne-mile demand through increased routing via longer alternative passages.

Looking ahead, VLGC fleet growth is expected to accelerate from FY27 onwards, with a substantial orderbook scheduled for delivery over
the next two years. Developments in the Middle East and transit conditions at the Panama Canal are expected to be important drivers as
trade patterns continue to evolve.

DRY BULK CARRIER MARKETS

Dry bulk earnings started FY26 softer y/y across all vessel types before improving significantly during the second half of FY26. Capesize
was the best performing segment, aided by continued strength in iron ore and bauxite trade. Sub-Capesize earnings were supported by firm
grain trade, while demand for coal faced headwinds during the year.

Iron ore trade remained resilient during FY26 as China continued to build inventories, although steel output remained under pressure due
to sustained weakness in the property sector. Firm Chinese steel exports provided partial support to domestic steel production and helped
maintain import demand for iron ore.

Coal trade remained subdued as imports into China and India softened amid steady growth in domestic production and increased electricity
generation from hydroelectric and renewable sources.

Grain trade remained supported by firm Chinese soybean demand and rising exports from South America. During H1 FY26, China increased
purchases from South America as part of efforts to reduce reliance on U.S. grains amid tariff tensions. However, imports of U.S. grains
improved during H2 FY26 following the announcement of a soybean trade agreement between the two countries.

Bauxite trade continued its strong growth trajectory, increasing by 16% y/y in FY26. Guinea's exports to China reached record levels,
supported by robust aluminium production in China. Other minor bulks, including steel products and fertilisers, also supported overall dry
bulk demand.

The nominal bulk carrier fleet supply increased by approximately 2.9% y/y in FY26. Fleet growth was lower for Capesizes at around 1.2%
y/y versus growth of 4.0% y/y for Sub-Capesizes.

ASSET VALUES

Bulker asset prices increased over FY26. Values have risen between 15% and 25% in FY26 depending upon the age profile and the type of
vessel.

OUTLOOK

Overall dry bulk trade growth outlook remains broadly positive, although ongoing developments in the Middle East Gulf region continue to
introduce uncertainty for certain commodity flows and pricing dynamics.

Iron ore trade is expected to remain supported by the gradual ramp up of supply from the Simandou iron ore project in Guinea. Long-haul
iron ore exports from Guinea to China are likely to benefit Capesize tonne-miles. However, slowdown in domestic steel demand in China
could act as a headwind for import requirements, while any moderation in Chinese steel exports may further influence overall iron ore trade
flows.

Coal trade dynamics may be influenced by developments in global energy markets; tighter LNG availability following disruptions to export
infrastructure in the Middle East, could lead to greater reliance on coal for power generation in some regions. At the same time, domestic
production trends in major importing countries such as China and India, together with production policies in Indonesia, the world's largest
thermal coal exporter, may influence the pace of growth in seaborne coal trade over the medium term.

Fertilizer exports from the Middle East Gulf region have been affected by recent regional developments, contributing to tighter supply
conditions and higher prices. This may influence planting decisions and crop production in major agricultural regions of the world.

The bulk carrier orderbook is around 13% of the fleet, with the fleet expected to grow at approximately 3% in CY2026, consistent with fleet
growth in CY2025.

A detailed Asset Profile section forms part of this Annual Report.

KEY FINANCIAL RATIOS

Conventional return ratios are not appropriate to assess the performance or condition of your Company for the following reasons:

1. A very significant part of the return in shipping comes from the appreciation in the value of the asset itself. This does not enter the Profit
and Loss account except at the time of sale.

2. In recent years, due to the change in accounting standards, the Company's profits have been affected very significantly by the movement
in exchange rates. When the foreign currency current assets are higher than the foreign currency debt, this has the effect of increasing
the Company's profits when the rupee depreciates against the US Dollar, and of reducing its profits when the rupee appreciates against
the US Dollar.

Considering the cyclical and highly volatile nature of the shipping industry, the ability to survive weak markets, and if possible, even take
advantage of them, is critical to success. The Company therefore believes that following are the key financial ratios applicable to its business:

1. Gross and Net Debt: Equity Ratio - This shows the extent of leverage taken by the business, both at a gross level and net of the cash
and cash equivalents held. Net debt: equity is a standard ratio used in assessing a shipping company's creditworthiness.

Debt ratios have stayed at low levels due to the strong cash flow generation and low capex relative to balance sheet size.

2. Cash Debt Service Coverage Ratio - This represents the Company's ability to meet its debt servicing obligations. It is the sum of
the PBIDT plus the cash and cash equivalents held by the Company divided by the expected debt service payments over the next
12 months.

This ratio stood at 16.72 as of end FY26 versus 15.23 at the end of the previous financial year. The increase in the ratio is due to lower
interest costs in FY27 as compared to FY26.

3. Net Debt:PBIDT - This shows the number of years earnings it would take to cover the repayment of the debt which is not covered by
the cash and equivalents.

The ratio was -1.71 as of end FY26 versus -1.66 as at the end of the previous financial year. The level of the ratio is not currently relevant
since the net debt is negative in both years.

4. Return on Net Worth - The ratio was 18.18% for FY26 vs 19.39% for FY25. The decrease was mainly due to the higher net worth base
during the year as against the previous year.

RISKS AND CONCERNS

Your Company has carried out a detailed exercise to identify the various risks faced by your Company, and has put in place mitigation,
control and monitoring plans for each of the risks. Risk owners have been identified for each risk, and these risk owners are responsible for
controlling the respective risks. The efficacy of these processes is monitored on a regular basis by Risk Sub- Committees (comprising of
Whole-time Directors and Senior Management Personnel of the Company) for the different areas in order to make continuous improvement
and is further reviewed by the Risk Management Committee.

The Risk Management Committee currently consists of Mr. Bharat K. Sheth, Chairman, Mr. Amitabh Kumar, Mrs. Kalpana Morparia,
Mr. Shivshankar Menon, Mr. T. N. Ninan, Mr. Uday Shankar and Mr. G. Shivakumar.

The Board of Directors and Audit Committee are regularly briefed on your Company's risk management process.

The material risks and challenges faced by your Company are as follows:

ECONOMIC RISK:

Shipping is a global business whose performance is closely linked to the state of the global economy. Therefore, if global economic growth
is adversely impacted, it could have an unfavourable effect on the state of the shipping market.

GEO-POLITICAL RISK:

OPEC nations control about one third of the world oil supply. Therefore, their decision on whether to increase or reduce crude production
can have a material impact on the tanker freight markets.

Many of the countries producing and exporting crude oil are politically volatile and geographically located in sensitive areas. Any change
in the political situation in these countries may alter the supply-demand scenario. This would have a consequential impact on the tanker
market. We are seeing this issue currently, with the Strait of Hormuz effectively closed to normal traffic since the beginning of March 2026.

Issues such as sanctions and wars may also affect shipping markets.

TRADE BARRIERS:

Trade disputes between countries can turn into trade wars with erection of tariff and non-tariff barriers. The manner in which such barriers
are implemented could have significant impact on trade volumes and routes.

CHINESE ECONOMY:

China has been a major driver of global growth especially for commodities. If the economy falters or changes its policy towards import of
various goods, the consequential damage to shipping will be significant.

CHALLENGES FACED BY THE SHIPPING BUSINESS

EARNINGS VOLATILITY:

The shipping industry is a truly global business with a host of issues potentially impacting the supply demand balance of the industry. This
results in significant volatility in freight earnings and asset values.

Your Company attempts to manage that risk in various ways.

If your Company believes that the freight market could weaken, it may enter into time charter contracts ranging from 6 months to 3 years
or use freight derivatives to hedge the risk. Another method of managing risk is by adjusting the mix of assets in the fleet through sale or
purchase of ships.

As capital cost is a major cost component, your Company also ensures that assets are bought at cheap prices. Your Company hopes to
weather weak markets better than most players in the business by having among the lowest fleet break-evens.

Your Company operates ships in different asset classes and different markets. This ensures that your Company's fortunes are not fully
dependent upon a single market.

LIQUIDITY RISK:

The sale and purchase market and time charter markets are not always liquid. Therefore, there could be times when your Company is not
able to position the portfolio in the ideal manner.

FINANCE RISK:

Your Company's business is predominantly USD denominated as freight rates are determined in USD and so are ship values. Your Company
has its liabilities also denominated in USD. Any significant movement in currency or interest rates could meaningfully impact the financials
of your Company.

SHIPBOARD PERSONNEL:

Indian officers continue to be in great demand all over the world. Given the unfavourable taxes on a seafarer sailing on an Indian flagged
vessel, it is difficult to source officers capable of meeting the modern-day challenges of worldwide trading.

CYBER RISK:

A new and worrying threat to our business is cyber risk. Your Company is taking steps to secure its assets and systems from this threat,
including by having suitable protection in place and by constant training to employees on how to avoid such issues.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY

Your Company has instituted internal financial control systems which are adequate for the nature of its business and the size of its operations.
The policies and procedures adopted by your Company ensure the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to
Company's policies, safeguarding of its assets, prevention and detection of frauds and errors, accuracy and completeness of the accounting
records, and timely preparation of reliable financial information.

The systems have been well documented and communicated. The systems are tested and audited from time to time by your Company and
internal as well as statutory auditors to ensure that the systems are reinforced on an ongoing basis. Significant audit observations and follow
up actions thereon are reported to the Audit Committee.

No reportable material weakness or significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal financial controls were observed during
the year.

The internal audit is carried out by a firm of external Chartered Accountants (Ernst & Young LLP) and covers all departments. Your Company
also has an independent Internal Audit Department. Apart from facilitating the internal audit by Ernst & Young LLP, the Internal Audit
Department also conducts internal audit as per the scope decided from time to time.

Both Ernst & Young LLP and Head (Internal Audit) report to the Audit Committee in their capacity of internal auditors of your Company.

Consequent upon resignation by Head (Internal Audit), Ernst & Young LLP would continue as the sole internal auditors of the Company

In the beginning of the year, the scope of the internal audit exercise including the key business processes and selected risk areas to be
audited are finalised in consultation with the Audit Committee. All significant audit observations and follow up actions thereon are reported
to the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee comprises of Mr. Keki Mistry (Chairman), Mrs. Bhavna Doshi, Mr. Raju Shukla and Mr. T. N. Ninan all of whom are
Independent Directors of your Company. Mr. Berjis Desai ceased to be the member of the Audit Committee w.e.f. April 24, 2026.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

year ' 232.66 crores) on a standalone and consolidated basis, respectively.

YoY basis, but comparable profitability metrics of EBIDTA and PAT improved by 30% and 89% respectively, once again demonstrating
the operational leverage inherent in the business. Considering the dollar denominated or linked revenue base of the business, the ~4.5%
depreciation of the Indian rupee (INR) against the U.S. dollar lends support to the improvement in such YoY financial metrics.

During the year, your Company granted a term loan of ' 425 crores to GIL for repayment of its External Commercial Borrowing facility. As of
March 31, 2026, GIL's debt is entirely internal i.e. from your Company and the cash balance in excess of ' 1400 crores comfortably covered
such debt liability.

ENERGY CONSERVATION AND TECHNOLOGY ABSORPTION

CONSERVATION OF ENERGY

The revised IMO GHG Strategy includes an enhanced common ambition to reach net-zero GHG emissions from international shipping by or
around 2050, as well as indicative checkpoints for 2030 and 2040. Your Company has been undertaking various technical and operational
initiatives about enhancing energy efficiency in its business operations. The same has also been described in detail in the BRSR and ESG
Reports, which form part of this Annual Report.

ENERGY SAVING TECHNOLOGIES

In its efforts to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions, your Company has implemented the following energy efficiency initiatives
on various vessels during this financial year. Few of these will help us in complying with IMO and EU regulations on emission reduction:

• Redesigned Propellers - Fitted on 2 LR tankers in this fiscal, with this we have completed fitment on total 4 LR tankers. These propellers
are lighter in weight and have an improved design profile which will help in emissions reduction. These will also help with the reduction
of underwater noise.

• MAN B&W EcoCam - Retrofit was completed on 3 vessels during their respective dry dockings. This will assist in emission reduction
during part load operations of main propulsion engine.

• Ultrasonic equipment for biofouling protection of propellers - This is installed on 18 vessels and the Company plans to do on selected
vessels in the coming fiscal year.

• Adaptive autopilot retrofit was completed on 14 vessels. This will assist in reducing cross-track error during vessel's navigation and
hereby resulting in reduced emissions.

• LED lighting - LED lights are energy efficient as compared to traditional lights such as fluorescent, halogen and incandescent lights.
Total 34 vessels are fitted with such arrangement.

• High performance paints - For a typical ship, loss of energy through hull resistance is around 30% and this increases with growth of hull
roughness due to biofouling. To minimize growth of biofouling, your Company has applied superior anti-fouling coatings on 6 vessels
during their respective dry dockings in this financial year.

During the year, your Company made a total capital investment of USD 684,483 on energy conservation equipments.

COMPLIANCE WITH IMO & EU EMISSION REGULATIONS

IMO DCS Data for the calendar year 2025 have been submitted to R.O. by the due date for their review. A similar exercise for corresponding
requirement of European Union, but applicable to vessels which have made commercial voyages to or from EU for the calendar year 2025,
has been completed.

Your Company tracks and monitors the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) ratings for all its vessels. This will help the organization in timely
identifying the vessels which will require improvement and appropriate actions can be planned accordingly. In CY 2025, 81% of our ships
were rated C or better.

For EU ETS, we have contracted with couple of reputed brokers for the purchase & management of EUAs for non-pool vessels and for pool
vessels it will be handled by respective pool managers.

The Company has opened a Maritime Operator Holding Account (MOHA) with Spanish Registry for holding and submission of EUA allowances.

For FuelEU Maritime, the Company has partnered with established organisations and opted for pooling mechanism as compliance method.
For pool vessels it is managed by respective pool managers. As a sustainable and effective method, your Company has also used bio-fuel
