The other entities named in the agreement are Swan Corp Limited, Swan Engitech Works Private Limited and Swan Defence and Heavy Industries Limited. The update states that the encumbrance does not relate to debt instruments such as debentures, commercial paper or certificate of deposit.
How much is now encumbered
Swan Engitech Works holds ~3.84 crore shares in Swan Corp Ltd. After this creation, the promoter's encumbered holding is 3 crore shares, or 9.57% of the total share capital. Measured against its own holding, that works out to 78.12%. The update notes that the encumbered shares are more than 50% of Swan Engitech's total shareholding in the company.
How to read it
- A pledge is a form of encumbrance: the promoter continues to own the shares, but they are held as collateral, so they are not free to be sold while the pledge stands.
- The borrowing here is for a group entity, and the listed company's shares form part of the security for that facility.
- Because 78.12% of this promoter's stake is now encumbered, the lender's charge over those shares is a detail worth tracking if the borrowing group entity's repayment position changes.
- The update names the lender, the security trustee, the facility amount and the value of the shares offered, which lets investors follow the arrangement from the disclosure itself.
