(1) This calculation is based on 282,430,194 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”), outstanding as of December 26, 2021, as reported by the Issuer in its Form 6-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on December 30, 2021.

(2) The Reporting Person currently holds 46,867,691 Shares of the Issuer. In addition, the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below) grants the Reporting Person the right to, at its discretion, transfer the ordinary shares of Renew Power Private Limited, a company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of India and subsidiary of the Issuer (“ReNew India”), held by the Reporting Person (the “India Shares”) to the Issuer in exchange for an aggregate of 12,345,678 Class A ordinary shares of the Issuer. As of February 14, 2022, the Reporting Person is considered to beneficially own an aggregate of 59,213,369 Shares of the Issuer, or 20.1% of the voting rights associated with the outstanding Class A Shares (including 12,345,678 voting rights exercisable by the Reporting Person by virtue of the Class D Share held by the Reporting Person).

(3) The Reporting Person also holds one Class D ordinary share of the Issuer, nominal value of $0.0001 (the “Class D Share”). The Class D Share effectively gives the Reporting Person the right to exercise its voting rights as if the Reporting Person had already converted the India Shares into Class A ordinary shares of the Issuer.
