Yatra Online, Inc.

The committee is expected to engage with industry experts, legal counsel, regulatory bodies, and other stakeholders to gather insights, perspectives, and requirements for approval on any proposed corporate structural changes.

After such review, the committee will develop a set of strategic recommendations for the board that outline potential pathways, the anticipated benefits, and any associated risks or challenges. The committee will aim for a plan that can reduce administrative overhead, rationalize costs, and facilitate organic and inorganic growth for the Company.

There is no assurance that the Company will necessarily take any near-term course of action, or will pursue any recommended plan.
