The move concludes all material actions associated with the buyback, which was executed in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Buy-Back of Securities) Regulations, 2018.
The extinguishment process was finalized on July 15, 2026, as confirmed by National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL).
