On June 30, 2026, IGC Pharma, Inc. (the “Company”) entered
into separate Stock Purchase Agreements with Ram Mukunda, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and Claudia

Grimaldi purchased shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, directly from the Company at a purchase price
of $0.27 per share. The purchase price was satisfied through the cancellation and satisfaction of outstanding amounts owed by the Company
to each of them, including personal cash advances previously provided to the Company and other amounts deferred over multiple years.
The Company issued 2,226,475 shares of common stock to Mr. Mukunda
in exchange for the cancellation and satisfaction of $601,148 of outstanding amounts owed to him, including about $283,639 of personal

the cancellation and satisfaction of $553,062 of outstanding amounts owed to her, including about $268,723 of personal cash advances previously
provided to the Company.
The transactions were approved in advance by the independent directors
and the Audit Committee, with the interested directors recused, including for purposes of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934.
The transactions did not involve any cash payments by the Company and
reduced the Company’s outstanding obligations by $1,154,210, with a corresponding increase in stockholders’ equity.
The foregoing description of the Stock Purchase Agreements does not
purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Stock Purchase Agreement, filed as Exhibit 10.1 to
this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information set forth
in Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference. The shares of common stock were issued in private transactions in reliance on Section
4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. The recipients are
executive officers of the Company and acquired the shares for investment purposes. No general solicitation was used, and no underwriting
discounts or commissions were paid. The shares are restricted securities and may not be offered or sold absent registration under the
Securities Act or an available exemption from registration, including Rule 144. Any resale by Mr. Mukunda or Ms. Grimaldi will remain
subject to applicable securities law restrictions, Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company’s insider trading
policy, and applicable NYSE American rules.
