Promoter holding at a glance
- Total promoter shareholding: 16351940 shares, or 56.01% of total share capital.
- Encumbered shares as a percentage of promoter shareholding: 84.11.
- The update answers 'Yes' to encumbered shares being 50% or more of promoter shareholding and 20% or more of total share capital.
What this means
- A release of pledge means those shares are no longer held as security with the lender, so the encumbrance on them goes down.
- Encumbrance on promoter shares is tracked because a large pledged holding can become relevant if shares have to be sold to settle a default.
- Here, releases are reported for three promoters, while the disclosure also records that a substantial part of the promoter group's holding stays encumbered, all with a single broking entity and against intra-day margin.
