The promoter – manager family group of DSML comprises of two families, viz., the group represented by Mr. Gaurav Goel, or the GV Promoter Group, and the group represented by Mr. Gautam Goel or the GT Promoter Group. Mr. Gaurav Goel and Mr. Gautam Goel are presently the managing directors of DSML. 

The Proposed Combination envisages a series of inter-connected steps pursuant to which GV Promoter Group will hold stake only in/comparatively greater stake in DSML (which will hold the Dhampur and Rajpura units); and GT Promoter Group will hold stake only in/comparatively greater stake in DBOL (which will hold the Asmoli, Mansurpur and Meerganj units).
