Personal Trading by the Research Analyst — Disclosure & Client Acknowledgement On behalf of the Research Analyst (SEBI-Registered Research Analyst):

1. Personal Trading:
   The Research Analyst (“RA”) may, from time to time, transact in securities that are also the subject of the RA’s research reports or recommendations. Such personal trades are executed in accordance with the RA’s individual investment objectives, risk appetite, time horizon, target prices, and stop-loss levels, which may differ materially from those communicated in client advisories or research outputs.
2. No Implied Advice from Personal Trades:
   The RA’s personal trades do not constitute client-specific advice and should not be construed as a directive for clients to buy/sell/hold. Any difference between the RA’s execution and the parameters in research communications is solely due to the RA’s proprietary goals and constraints.
3. Client Reliance on Formal Communications Only:
   Clients are strictly advised to act only on the basis of the research report/advice formally communicated by the RA through the designated channels and/or upon the triggering of target or stop-loss levels stated therein. Mimicking or acting upon the RA’s personal trades, outside of a corresponding formal recommendation, is done entirely at the client’s own discretion and risk.
4. Fiduciary Conduct & Conflict Management:
   While SEBI regulations permit a Research Analyst to trade in covered securities subject to applicable disclosures and internal controls, the RA maintains a fiduciary duty to ensure that client interests are not compromised. The RA adheres to prescribed codes of conduct, disclosure requirements, and conflict-management procedures to mitigate potential conflicts arising from personal trading.
5. Client Acknowledgement & Indemnity:
   By engaging with the RA’s research services, the client acknowledges and agrees that (i) any decision to imitate or rely on the RA’s personal trades—absent a formal recommendation from the RA—is taken solely at the client’s risk, and (ii) the client shall bear full responsibility for all outcomes of such actions and shall indemnify and hold the RA harmless from any loss, claim, liability, or consequence arising therefrom. This disclosure forms an integral part of the RA’s Terms of Engagement and should be read in conjunction with the RA’s Research Analyst Disclosures and Code of Conduct.
