Preferential allotment completed after the period end
Shareholders had approved, and the Board had earlier approved on September 16, 2026, an issue of 22,27,544 equity shares of face value Rs.10 each at an issue price of Rs.1,670 per share, which includes a premium of Rs.1,660 per share. This aggregates to Rs.371.99 Crores. The shares were allotted on October 27, 2026 on a preferential basis to identified non-promoter investors. The allotment took place after the reporting period and therefore has no impact on the results for the quarter and half-year ended September 30, 2026.
Points a shareholder may want to track
- The dividend is modest per share but is a cash return; the record date and payment date are fixed, so the share must be held in demat or registered form on the record date to qualify
- Revenue grew in the quarter, while net profit for the quarter was broadly similar to the year-ago quarter; the half-year profit is higher than the same half last year
- The preferential issue added equity capital after the period end, which will reflect in the share capital in later periods
- The auditors' review report states that nothing came to their attention suggesting a material misstatement or non-disclosure
