Centerac Technologies Limited has formally applied to BSE Limited seeking a no-objection for the reclassification of six promoter group members to the public category. The application, submitted on May 26, 2026, follows earlier communications dated May 20, 2026, and May 22, 2026, and is made in accordance with Regulation 31A of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
Background and Basis for Reclassification
The reclassification process was initiated following a reduction in shareholding by Sanjiv Khandelwal, who divested a substantial portion of his stake pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement dated January 22, 2018. As a result, the concerned shareholders stated that they no longer exercise control over or participate in the management of the company. The shareholders have confirmed that neither they nor any persons related to them hold more than 10% of the total voting rights, exercise control over the company's affairs, or hold any special rights. They have also confirmed that none of them are classified as willful defaulters or fugitive economic offenders.
Shareholders Seeking Reclassification
The following six members of the promoter group have applied for reclassification from the 'Promoter Group' category to the public category:
| Sr. No. | Name of Shareholder | Category | No. of Shares Held | Shareholding (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|

The company's Board of Directors had reviewed the reclassification requests at its meeting held on May 22, 2026. Following board approval, Centerac Technologies submitted the formal no-objection application to BSE Limited on May 26, 2026. The reclassification is intended to align the shareholder category with the current status of these individuals in relation to the company. The intimation was signed by Shweta Sarraf, Company Secretary and Compliance Officer of Centerac Technologies Limited.
How will the reduction in promoter group influence the company's future governance structure and strategic decision-making?
What impact will the reclassification have on the free-float market capitalization and trading liquidity of Centerac Technologies shares?
Are there potential plans for the remaining promoters to further dilute their stake or bring in new strategic investors?
