Additional Information
Bharti Airtel Limited holds 100%
voting rights in Network i2i Limited, which in turn holds 100%
voting rights in Airtel Africa Mauritius Limited ('AAML'), a major
shareholder of Airtel Africa plc.
This disclosure under DTR 5 is being given pursuant to acquisition
of additional 163,582,580 (i.e. 4.4521%) ordinary shares of $0.50
each of Airtel Africa plc ('AAplc') on February 21, 2025,
consequent to which the shareholding of AAML in AAplc has been
increased from 57.2929% to 61.74750%.
We wish to submit that the minor difference in the pre-acquisition
stake (i.e. 57.2929%) and stake reported in our previous TR-1
notification dt. December 16, 2024 (i.e. 57.0596%) is on account of
consequential increase in stake due of purchase of its own shares
by AAplc under share buy-back programme com-menced on December 23,
2024.
The shareholding percentages in this notice are calculated on the
basis of 3,674,291,716 ordinary shares of $0.50 each of AAplc. In
this notification, figures are rounded to the nearest 4 decimal
places. Any discrep-ancies in aggregated figures are due to
rounding-off.
