Gurugram, India; October 14, 2025: ReNew Global Energy plc (“ReNew” or the “Company”) today announces

2025 (the “Revised Proposal”), from Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company PJSC-Masdar
(“Masdar”), Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (“CPP Investments”), Platinum
Hawk C 2019 RSC Limited as trustee for the Platinum Cactus A 2019 Trust
(“Platinum Hawk”) (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi Investment
Authority, “ADIA”) and Sumant Sinha (the Founder, Chairman and CEO of ReNew)
(together with Masdar, CPP Investments and Platinum Hawk, the “Consortium”) to
acquire the entire issued and to be issued share capital of the Company not
already owned by members of the Consortium for cash consideration of US$8.15
per share. This represents an increase of US$1.08 per share, equivalent to
15.3%, from the initial non-binding proposal dated December 10, 2024. The
Revised Proposal represents a 28.5% premium versus the undisturbed share price
of US$6.34 on December 10, 2024, being the closing share price prior to the
initial non-binding proposal becoming public and a 41.5% premium to the 30-day
volume-weighted average price of US$5.76 per share (as of December 10, 2024)
As previously announced, the ReNew Board of Directors
formed a Special Committee (“Special Committee”) led by Manoj Singh, the Lead
Independent Director, consisting of the six independent non-executive ReNew
Directors to consider the proposals received from the Consortium.
The Special Committee is in the process of evaluating
the Revised Proposal alongside its independent financial advisor, Rothschild
& Co and independent legal counsel, Linklaters LLP. Active discussions with
the Consortium remain ongoing and the Special Committee will provide a
conclusive update as soon as reasonably practicable.
No assurance can be given regarding the likelihood,
terms or details of a potential transaction resulting from the Revised Proposal
received from the Consortium or any other potential transaction. Further
decisions or disclosures by the Special Committee will be made as appropriate
or required.
