CLN Energy has secured unanimous shareholder approval for its proposed preferential allotment of up to 2,50,000 equity shares to a promoter entity, raising ₹10.57 crore at an issue price of ₹423 per share. The company also obtained full backing for an increase in its authorised share capital. These resolutions were passed through a postal ballot process that concluded on July 23, 2026, with the scrutinizer’s report submitted on July 27, 2026. The successful vote clears the final regulatory hurdle for the capital raise, enabling the promoter group to strengthen its stake without diluting public shareholders.

The voting process was overseen by M/s SARK & Associates LLP, with Sumit Khanna (CP No. 9304) appointed as the scrutinizer. A total of 10 members cast their votes via the National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) e-voting platform between June 24, 2026, and July 23, 2026. No votes were received through physical postal ballot forms. The record date for determining voting eligibility was June 19, 2026, when 733 shareholders held stakes in the company. The total shares held by eligible voters stood at 10,553,250.

Voting Results Breakdown

Both resolutions — one ordinary and one special — received 100% support from the votes polled. The promoter group, holding 7,661,238 shares, voted in favour of both proposals. Public non-institutional shareholders, holding 2,892,012 shares, cast 624,000 votes in favour. No votes were recorded against either resolution, and there were no invalid votes.

The preferential allotment resolution required a special majority as it involved an issue to a related party. The issue price of ₹423 per share was determined based on a floor price of ₹422.82, derived from a valuation report by M/s Ajay Kumar Sukhadiya & Associates, Chartered Accountants. This pricing reflects a premium of ₹413 over the ₹10 face value per share.

Strategic Implications

The unanimous approval underscores strong shareholder confidence in the promoter’s strategy to inject capital directly into the business. By opting for a preferential allotment rather than a public rights issue, CLN Energy avoids the administrative burden and potential dilution associated with broader market offerings. The funds raised are expected to support operational expansion and working capital requirements, although specific deployment details were not disclosed in the ballot notice.

The increase in authorised share capital provides the company with greater flexibility for future fundraising activities, including potential employee stock options or further equity issuances. This structural change aligns with the company’s growth trajectory and ensures adequate headroom for capital market operations.

CLN Energy Limited complied with Regulation 44 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, by submitting the scrutinizer’s report to BSE Limited.

With the regulatory approvals secured, the company is now positioned to proceed with the allotment of shares and credit the funds to its accounts. Shareholders will receive further updates regarding the completion of the allotment and the updated shareholding pattern in subsequent filings.
