(IAF) and the India Fund, Inc. (IFN),\nthis stock distribution will automatically be paid in newly issued shares of\nthe Fund unless otherwise instructed by the shareholder. Shares of common\nstock will be issued at the lower of the net asset value (\"NAV\") per share or\nthe market price per share with a floor for the NAV of not less than 95% of\nthe market price.  The valuation date for this stock distribution is\nSeptember 17, 2026.  Fractional shares will generally be settled in cash,\nexcept for registered shareholders with book entry accounts at Computershare\nInvestor Services who will have whole and fractional shares added to their\naccount.\n\nShareholders may request to be paid their quarterly distributions in cash\ninstead of shares of common stock by providing advance notice to the bank,\nbrokerage or nominee who holds their shares if the shares are in \"street\nname,\" or by filling out in advance an election card received from\nComputershare Investor Services if the shares are in registered form. To\nreceive the quarterly distribution payable in September 2026 in cash instead\nof shares of common stock, the bank, brokerage or nominee who holds the shares\nmust advise the Depository Trust Company as to the full and fractional shares\nfor which they want the distribution paid in cash by September 16, 2026, and\nwritten notification for the election of cash by registered shareholders must\nbe received by Computershare Investor Services prior to September 16,\n2026.\n\nEach Fund has adopted a distribution policy to provide investors with a stable\ndistribution out of current income, supplemented by realized capital gains\nand, to the extent necessary, paid-in capital in reliance on an exemptive\norder granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.\n\nUnder applicable U.S. tax rules, the amount and character of distributable\nincome for each Fund's fiscal year can be finally determined only as of the\nend of the Fund's fiscal year. However, under Section 19 of the Investment\nCompany Act of 1940, as amended (the \"1940 Act\") and related rules, the Funds\nmay be required to indicate to shareholders the estimated source of certain\ndistributions to shareholders.\n\nThe following tables set forth the estimated amounts of the sources of the\ndistributions for purposes of Section 19 of the 1940 Act and the rules adopted\nthereunder. The tables have been computed based on generally accepted\naccounting principles.  The tables include estimated amounts and percentages\nfor the current distributions to be paid as well as for the cumulative\ndistributions paid relating to fiscal year to date, from the following\nsources: net investment income; net realized short-term capital gains; net\nrealized long-term capital gains; and return of capital. The estimated\ncompositions of the distributions may vary because the estimated composition\nmay be impacted by future income, expenses and realized gains and losses on\nsecurities and currencies.\n\nThe Funds' estimated sources of the current distributions to be paid and for\nits current fiscal year to date are as follows:\n Estimated Amounts of Current Distribution per Share\n Fund  Distribution Amount                        Net Investment Income     Net Realized Short-Term Gains*      Net Realized Long-Term Gains      Return of Capital\n ASGI  $0.2200                                    $0.0154      7 %          $0.0440           20 %              $0.1606          73 %             -          -\n HQH   $0.6600                                    -            -            $0.5148           78 %              $0.1452          22 %             -          -\n HQL   $0.6200                                    -            -            $0.5958           96 %              $0.0242          4 %              -          -\n IAF   $0.3500                                    $0.0210      6 %          -                 -                 $0.2730          78 %             $0.0560    16 %\n IFN   $0.3700                                    -            -            -                 -                 $0.3330          90 %             $0.0370    10 %\n THQ   $0.1800                                    -            -            $0.0684           38 %              $0.0864          48 %             $0.0252    14 %\n THW   $0.1167                                    -            -            $0.0724           62 %              $0.0443          38 %             -          -\n Estimated Amounts of Fiscal Year to Date Cumulative Distributions per Share\n Fund  Fiscal Year** to Date Distribution Amount  Net Investment Income     Net Realized Short-Term Gains*      Net Realized Long-Term Gains      Return of Capital\n ASGI  $2.4200                                    $0.1694      7 %          $0.4840           20 %              $1.7666          73 %             -          -\n HQH   $2.4700                                    -            -            $1.9266           78 %              $0.5434          22 %             -          -\n HQL   $2.2400                                    -            -            $2.1526           96 %              $0.0874          4 %              -          -\n IAF   $1.4500                                    $0.0870      6 %          -                 -                 $1.1310          78 %             $0.2320    16 %\n IFN   $1.2100                                    -            -            -                 -                 $1.0890          90 %             $0.1210    10 %\n THQ   $1.9800                                    -            -            $0.7524           38 %              $0.9504          48 %             $0.2772    14 %\n THW   $1.2837                                    -            -            $0.7959           62 %              $0.4878          38 %             -          -\n\n* includes currency gains\n** ASGI, HQH, HQL, THQ and THW have a 9/30 fiscal year end.

Closed-end Fund shares may therefore trade at a\npremium or a discount to net asset value at any given time. Shareholders\nshould be aware that a fund's premium to net asset value may not be\nsustainable and a fund's discount to net asset value can widen as well as\nnarrow. Shareholders of a fund trading at a premium who participate in that\nfund's dividend reinvestment plan should note the reinvestment of\ndistributions may occur at a premium to net asset value.\n\nWhile NAV performance may be indicative of the Fund's investment performance,\nit does not measure the value of a shareholder's investment in the Fund. The\nvalue of a shareholder's investment in the Fund is determined by the Fund's\nmarket price, which is based on the supply and demand for the Fund's shares in\nthe open market.\n\nPursuant to an exemptive order granted by the Securities and Exchange\nCommission, the Funds may distribute any long-term capital gains more\nfrequently than the limits provided in Section 19(b) under the 1940 Act and\nRule 19b-1 thereunder. Therefore, distributions paid by the Funds during the\nyear may include net income, short-term capital gains, long-term capital gains\nand/or a return of capital. Net income dividends and short-term capital gain\ndividends, while generally taxable at ordinary income rates, may be eligible,\nto the extent of qualified dividend income earned by the Funds, to be taxed at\na lower rate not to exceed the maximum rate applicable to your long-term\ncapital gains. Distributions made in any calendar year in excess of investment\nin company taxable income and net capital gain are treated as taxable ordinary\ndividends to the extent of undistributed earnings and profits, and then as a\nreturn of capital that reduces the adjusted basis in the shares held. To the\nextent return of capital distributions exceed the adjusted basis in the shares\nheld, capital gain is recognized with a holding period based on the period the\nshares have been held at the date such amount is received.\n\nThe payment of distributions in accordance with the Distribution Policy may\nresult in a decrease in the Fund's net assets. A decrease in the Fund's net\nassets may cause an increase in the Fund's annual operating expense ratio and\na decrease in the Fund's market price per share to the extent the market price\ncorrelates closely to the Fund's net asset value per share. The Distribution\nPolicy may also negatively affect the Fund's investment activities to the\nextent that the Fund is required to hold larger cash positions than it\ntypically would hold or to the extent that the Fund must liquidate securities\nthat it would not have sold, for the purpose of paying the distribution. Each\nFund's Board has the right to amend, suspend or terminate the Distribution\nPolicy at any time.\n\nThe amendment, suspension or termination of the Distribution Policy may affect\nthe Fund's market price per share. Investors should consult their tax advisor\nregarding federal, state, and local tax considerations that may be applicable\nin their particular circumstances.\n\nCircular 230 disclosure:  To ensure compliance with requirements imposed by\nthe U.S. Treasury, we inform you that any U.S. tax advice contained in this\ncommunication (including any attachments) is not intended or written to be\nused, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the\nInternal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another\nparty any transaction or matter addressed herein.\n\nIn the United States, Aberdeen Investments refers to the following affiliated,\nregistered investment advisers: abrdn Inc., abrdn Investments Limited, and\nabrdn Asia Limited.\n\nClosed-end funds are traded on the secondary market through one of the stock\nexchanges.

(IAF) and the India Fund, Inc. (IFN),\nthis stock distribution will automatically be paid in newly issued shares of\nthe Fund unless otherwise instructed by the shareholder. Shares of common\nstock will be issued at the lower of the net asset value (\"NAV\") per share or\nthe market price per share with a floor for the NAV of not less than 95% of\nthe market price.  The valuation date for this stock distribution is\nSeptember 17, 2026.  Fractional shares will generally be settled in cash,\nexcept for registered shareholders with book entry accounts at Computershare\nInvestor Services who will have whole and fractional shares added to their\naccount.\n\nShareholders may request to be paid their quarterly distributions in cash\ninstead of shares of common stock by providing advance notice to the bank,\nbrokerage or nominee who holds their shares if the shares are in \"street\nname,\" or by filling out in advance an election card received from\nComputershare Investor Services if the shares are in registered form. To\nreceive the quarterly distribution payable in September 2026 in cash instead\nof shares of common stock, the bank, brokerage or nominee who holds the shares\nmust advise the Depository Trust Company as to the full and fractional shares\nfor which they want the distribution paid in cash by September 16, 2026, and\nwritten notification for the election of cash by registered shareholders must\nbe received by Computershare Investor Services prior to September 16,\n2026.\n\nEach Fund has adopted a distribution policy to provide investors with a stable\ndistribution out of current income, supplemented by realized capital gains\nand, to the extent necessary, paid-in capital in reliance on an exemptive\norder granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.\n\nUnder applicable U.S. tax rules, the amount and character of distributable\nincome for each Fund's fiscal year can be finally determined only as of the\nend of the Fund's fiscal year. However, under Section 19 of the Investment\nCompany Act of 1940, as amended (the \"1940 Act\") and related rules, the Funds\nmay be required to indicate to shareholders the estimated source of certain\ndistributions to shareholders.\n\nThe following tables set forth the estimated amounts of the sources of the\ndistributions for purposes of Section 19 of the 1940 Act and the rules adopted\nthereunder. The tables have been computed based on generally accepted\naccounting principles.  The tables include estimated amounts and percentages\nfor the current distributions to be paid as well as for the cumulative\ndistributions paid relating to fiscal year to date, from the following\nsources: net investment income; net realized short-term capital gains; net\nrealized long-term capital gains; and return of capital. The estimated\ncompositions of the distributions may vary because the estimated composition\nmay be impacted by future income, expenses and realized gains and losses on\nsecurities and currencies.\n\nThe Funds' estimated sources of the current distributions to be paid and for\nits current fiscal year to date are as follows:\n Estimated Amounts of Current Distribution per Share\n Fund  Distribution Amount                        Net Investment Income     Net Realized Short-Term Gains*      Net Realized Long-Term Gains      Return of Capital\n ASGI  $0.2200                                    $0.0154      7 %          $0.0440           20 %              $0.1606          73 %             -          -\n HQH   $0.6600                                    -            -            $0.5148           78 %              $0.1452          22 %             -          -\n HQL   $0.6200                                    -            -            $0.5958           96 %              $0.0242          4 %              -          -\n IAF   $0.3500                                    $0.0210      6 %          -                 -                 $0.2730          78 %             $0.0560    16 %\n IFN   $0.3700                                    -            -            -                 -                 $0.3330          90 %             $0.0370    10 %\n THQ   $0.1800                                    -            -            $0.0684           38 %              $0.0864          48 %             $0.0252    14 %\n THW   $0.1167                                    -            -            $0.0724           62 %              $0.0443          38 %             -          -\n Estimated Amounts of Fiscal Year to Date Cumulative Distributions per Share\n Fund  Fiscal Year** to Date Distribution Amount  Net Investment Income     Net Realized Short-Term Gains*      Net Realized Long-Term Gains      Return of Capital\n ASGI  $2.4200                                    $0.1694      7 %          $0.4840           20 %              $1.7666          73 %             -          -\n HQH   $2.4700                                    -            -            $1.9266           78 %              $0.5434          22 %             -          -\n HQL   $2.2400                                    -            -            $2.1526           96 %              $0.0874          4 %              -          -\n IAF   $1.4500                                    $0.0870      6 %          -                 -                 $1.1310          78 %             $0.2320    16 %\n IFN   $1.2100                                    -            -            -                 -                 $1.0890          90 %             $0.1210    10 %\n THQ   $1.9800                                    -            -            $0.7524           38 %              $0.9504          48 %             $0.2772    14 %\n THW   $1.2837                                    -            -            $0.7959           62 %              $0.4878          38 %             -          -\n\n* includes currency gains\n** ASGI, HQH, HQL, THQ and THW have a 9/30 fiscal year end.

Closed-end Fund shares may therefore trade at a\npremium or a discount to net asset value at any given time. Shareholders\nshould be aware that a fund's premium to net asset value may not be\nsustainable and a fund's discount to net asset value can widen as well as\nnarrow. Shareholders of a fund trading at a premium who participate in that\nfund's dividend reinvestment plan should note the reinvestment of\ndistributions may occur at a premium to net asset value.\n\nWhile NAV performance may be indicative of the Fund's investment performance,\nit does not measure the value of a shareholder's investment in the Fund. The\nvalue of a shareholder's investment in the Fund is determined by the Fund's\nmarket price, which is based on the supply and demand for the Fund's shares in\nthe open market.\n\nPursuant to an exemptive order granted by the Securities and Exchange\nCommission, the Funds may distribute any long-term capital gains more\nfrequently than the limits provided in Section 19(b) under the 1940 Act and\nRule 19b-1 thereunder. Therefore, distributions paid by the Funds during the\nyear may include net income, short-term capital gains, long-term capital gains\nand/or a return of capital. Net income dividends and short-term capital gain\ndividends, while generally taxable at ordinary income rates, may be eligible,\nto the extent of qualified dividend income earned by the Funds, to be taxed at\na lower rate not to exceed the maximum rate applicable to your long-term\ncapital gains. Distributions made in any calendar year in excess of investment\nin company taxable income and net capital gain are treated as taxable ordinary\ndividends to the extent of undistributed earnings and profits, and then as a\nreturn of capital that reduces the adjusted basis in the shares held. To the\nextent return of capital distributions exceed the adjusted basis in the shares\nheld, capital gain is recognized with a holding period based on the period the\nshares have been held at the date such amount is received.\n\nThe payment of distributions in accordance with the Distribution Policy may\nresult in a decrease in the Fund's net assets. A decrease in the Fund's net\nassets may cause an increase in the Fund's annual operating expense ratio and\na decrease in the Fund's market price per share to the extent the market price\ncorrelates closely to the Fund's net asset value per share. The Distribution\nPolicy may also negatively affect the Fund's investment activities to the\nextent that the Fund is required to hold larger cash positions than it\ntypically would hold or to the extent that the Fund must liquidate securities\nthat it would not have sold, for the purpose of paying the distribution. Each\nFund's Board has the right to amend, suspend or terminate the Distribution\nPolicy at any time.\n\nThe amendment, suspension or termination of the Distribution Policy may affect\nthe Fund's market price per share. Investors should consult their tax advisor\nregarding federal, state, and local tax considerations that may be applicable\nin their particular circumstances.\n\nCircular 230 disclosure:  To ensure compliance with requirements imposed by\nthe U.S. Treasury, we inform you that any U.S. tax advice contained in this\ncommunication (including any attachments) is not intended or written to be\nused, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the\nInternal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another\nparty any transaction or matter addressed herein.\n\nIn the United States, Aberdeen Investments refers to the following affiliated,\nregistered investment advisers: abrdn Inc., abrdn Investments Limited, and\nabrdn Asia Limited.\n\nClosed-end funds are traded on the secondary market through one of the stock\nexchanges.
