The Trust Deed was executed on March, 2026. Under the terms of the deed, the company, acting as the Settlor, handed over an initial corpus of Rs. 10,000/- to the Trust for its commencement.

Objectives and Mechanism​

The primary object of the MSWIL ESOP Trust is to administer, manage, and fund the ESOP 2025 scheme for the benefit of the employees. The Settlor declared its intent to implement equity-based employee compensation plans to attract, retain, and incentivize employees.

The Trust Deed outlined several key operational aspects:

• Scheme Administration: The Trust is empowered to handle the welfare scheme, which includes the acquisition of the Settlor's Shares and subsequent transfer of shares to Beneficiaries based on the terms of the Scheme.
• Trust Fund Management: The Trustees are responsible for holding and applying the Trust Fund, which includes the initial corpus, any accumulated income, donations, or contributions. They are authorized to invest the fund in ways consistent with applicable laws, including depositing or investing in scheduled commercial banks or acquiring shares from the Settlor and other permitted sources.
• Trustee Authority: The Trustees have broad powers, including the ability to execute negotiations, enter into contracts, and take legal actions necessary for the Trust's objects. The Settlor, however, retains the power to suspend, extend, or alter the terms of the Scheme, provided any variation is not detrimental to the Beneficiaries' interests.

The Trust Deed established detailed governance procedures, defining the rights of the Beneficiaries, including the right to information and an accounting report of all income, expenses, and distributions. The Trustees also hold the power to frame rules and regulations necessary for the effective management of the Trust.
