Extinguishment of shares bought back in September 2026

The company has extinguished (cancelled) ~14.85 lakh fully paid-up equity shares of face value Rs. 5 each. These shares were bought back from the open market route through the stock exchanges during September 2026. Once extinguished, those shares cease to exist, so the total number of shares in issue falls by that number.

How the shares were extinguished

The ~14.85 lakh shares were held in demat form and were extinguished through Elara Securities (India) Private Limited as the depository participant, with Central Depository Services (India) Limited.
The extinguishment was effected on 12-Oct-2026.
No equity shares were bought back in physical form, so none were extinguished in physical form.

Background of the buyback

The buyback followed a Public Announcement dated August 6, 2026, published on August 7, 2026.
The buyback commenced on August 13, 2026.
Counting this tranche, the shares extinguished so far are the 6,89,000 bought back in August 2026 and the 14,85,134 bought back in September 2026.

What this means for a retail investor

Buying back and cancelling shares reduces the number of shares in issue, so each remaining share represents a slightly larger proportionate slice of the company.
The company's paid-up equity share capital falls by the number of shares extinguished.

Who confirmed it

Central Depository Services (India) Limited confirmed the extinguishment.
A certificate confirming the extinguishment of ~14.85 lakh equity shares was signed by MUFG Intime India Private Limited (Registrar to the Buyback), Sudhir Vishnupant Hulyalkar (Secretarial Auditor of the Company) and the Company.
