Urban Company Limited saw a reduction in institutional ownership as Bessemer India Capital Holdings II Ltd. sold 25,151,118 equity shares, representing 2.12% of the company's share capital. This transaction lowered Bessemer’s total holding from 5.54% to 3.42%.

The disclosure was filed under Regulation 29(2) of the SEBI (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2011. The sale was executed through open market transactions on stock exchanges, including a specific block deal on August 13, 2026. The tranches were sold over a period extending to September 23, 2026.

Transaction details and timeline

The seller, Bessemer India Capital Holdings II Ltd., is not part of the promoter or promoter group. The filing confirms that the pre-sale holding stood at 77,910,684 shares (5.54%). Following the disposal of 25,151,118 shares, the residual holding is 52,759,566 shares.

The mode of sale was primarily open market sales, with the inclusion of a block deal on August 13, 2026. The total equity share capital of Urban Company remained unchanged at 1,542,180,603 equity shares of ₹1 each, based on the shareholding pattern as of June 30, 2026.

What the numbers show

A notable divergence exists between the percentage change reported in the SAST disclosure (2.12%) and the actual proportion of current paid-up capital sold (1.63%). The filing attributes this discrepancy to an increase in Urban Company’s paid-up share capital since the reference date used for the pre-sale calculation. While the absolute number of shares sold represents 1.63% of the current capital base, the regulatory percentage reflects the change relative to the earlier recorded position, highlighting how capital structure changes can impact disclosed ownership metrics.

It also confirmed the cancellation of a previously scheduled meeting with Trust Mutual Fund. The disclosure was made under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
