Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 1 (this Amendment) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Person on September 2, 2021 (the Original Schedule 13D and, as amended and supplemented by this Amendment, the Schedule 13D). Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Original Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the same meanings ascribed thereto in the Original Schedule 13D.
This Schedule 13D relates to the Class A ordinary shares, nominal value of $0.0001 (the Shares), of ReNew Energy Global plc, a public limited company incorporated in England and Wales (the Issuer), having its registered office at c/o Vistra (UK) Ltd, 3rd Floor, 11-12 St. Jamess Square, London, SW1Y 4LB United Kingdom.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
(a) and (b) JERA Power RN B.V. (JERA Netherlands) is the record holder of and beneficially owns 28,524,255 Class A Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, which represent approximately 11.7% of the Issuers outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares. This percentage is calculated based on 244,266,823 Class A Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares) outstanding as of March 31, 2024, which represents the most recent date for which such information was made available by the Issuer to the Reporting Persons.
JERA Co., Inc. (JERA Japan), as the parent company of JERA Netherlands, may be deemed to beneficially own all of the Class A Ordinary Shares in the Issuer held directly by JERA Netherlands.
In addition, by virtue of the rights and obligations under Registration Rights, Coordination and Put Agreement and the Amended Shareholders Agreement (as defined below), certain of the other parties to those agreements, their affiliates and the Reporting Persons may each be deemed to be a member of a group for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. This filing shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons and such other persons constitute a group for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim membership in any such group. Such other persons have separately made Schedule 13D filings reporting their beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock.
(c) Except as described in this Schedule 13D, neither the Reporting Persons nor, to the Reporting Persons knowledge, any Covered Person have engaged in any transactions with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares in the past 60 days.
(d) To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons as described in this Item 5.
(e) Not applicable.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
This Amendment amends and supplements Item 6 of the Original Schedule 13D by adding the following:
