The restructuring significantly centralizes voting power within a single promoter entity. Bhupinder Kumar Sekhri’s stake expanded from a marginal 0.53% to a controlling 21.32%, whereas the remaining PACs hold only 6.93% collectively. This shift alters the internal distribution of equity within the promoter group without affecting external ownership or total promoter block size.
