Bluestone Jewellery & Lifestyle Ltd has announced the closure of its trading window for dealing in company securities. The restriction is effective from October 1, 2026, and will remain in force until the expiry of 48 hours following the declaration of the Unaudited Financial Results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Scope of Trading Restriction

The closure applies to all Promoters, Promoter Group members, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel, Designated Persons, Employees, Specified Connected Persons, and other Insiders of the Company. This restriction also extends to their Immediate Relatives, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards regarding insider trading.

Regulatory Compliance and Timeline

This action is taken pursuant to the SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015, as amended from time to time, and the Company's Code of Conduct for Regulating, Monitoring and Reporting of Trading by Insiders. The Board Meeting to consider and approve the said Unaudited Financial Results will be held on a date to be intimated in due course.

The company, formerly known as BlueStone Jewellery and Lifestyle Private Limited, filed this intimation with both BSE Ltd. and National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. on September 28, 2026.

Bluestone Jewellery & Lifestyle saw a significant change in shareholding as Accel India III (Mauritius) Ltd sold 28,00,000 shares, representing 2.50% of the company's equity, through open market transactions on September 24, 2026.

This formal disclosure under Regulation 29(2) of SEBI (SAST) Regulations confirms the identity of the seller involved in a large trade previously flagged by real-time scanning systems. Prior to this sale, Accel held 1,23,13,091 shares (8.08%), which has now reduced to 95,13,091 shares (5.58%).

Stake reduction details

The transaction was executed in the open market and does not involve any encumbrances or convertible securities. Accel India III is not part of the promoter group. The company's total equity share capital remains unchanged at 15,24,01,781 shares of face value ₹1 each, as per the latest disclosed shareholding pattern for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Context of earlier trade signal

Earlier, a real-time trade-scanning system flagged approximately 54,02,907 shares worth ₹460.92 crore changing hands on BSE at ₹853.10 per share. While such signals indicate clusters of trades within a short window, they do not constitute confirmed block or bulk deals until published by NSE/BSE after market close.

The new disclosure clarifies that a portion of this activity involved Accel's exit from a significant portion of its stake. A bulk deal is defined as one client's total trading crossing 0.5% of equity in a single day, while block deals occur in dedicated windows. This specific transaction falls under standard open market sales disclosed post-facto.

What the numbers show

Accel's holding has dropped below the 6% threshold, moving from 8.08% to 5.58%. The sale of 28 lakh shares represents a substantial reduction in institutional exposure. The total diluted share capital remains unchanged at 15,24,01,781 shares, indicating no dilution occurred due to this transaction.
