Industrial Investment Trust Limited has submitted an application to BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited on May 26, 2026, seeking approval for the reclassification of Mr. Swaran Singh from the promoter category to the public category. This move follows the Board's approval on May 23, 2026, and is subject to necessary regulatory clearances. The reclassification impacts Mr. Singh's status as he currently holds 25,000 equity shares, representing 0.13% of the total voting rights excluding GDRs.
Mr. Swaran Singh had requested this change on April 10, 2026. The Board evaluated the request and confirmed that he is not part of the Board, does not hold any key managerial position, and does not participate in the company's management. Consequently, the reclassification does not require shareholder approval as the promoter and related persons hold less than 1% of the total voting rights, complying with Regulation 31A(3)(a)(vi) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
