Gandhar Oil Refinery promoter Ramesh Babulal Parekh acquired 31,000 equity shares through the open market on September 8, 2026. The transaction increased his holding to 28.79% of the total voting capital.

The acquisition was disclosed under Regulation 29(2) of the SEBI (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2011. The company notified the BSE and NSE of the trade on September 9, 2026.

Transaction Details

Parekh, who serves as the Managing Director and promoter, purchased the shares directly from the open market. The deal added 0.03% to his stake relative to both total share capital and diluted share capital.

Shareholding Structure

The company’s total equity share capital remains at ₹19,57,59,060, comprising 9,78,79,530 equity shares with a face value of ₹2 each. All shares are fully paid up.

Parekh holds no warrants, convertible securities, or other instruments entitling him to receive additional voting rights. There are no encumbrances, pledges, or liens on the shares held by the promoter.

What the Numbers Show

The acquisition represents a minor incremental increase in promoter confidence. With a stake of nearly 29%, Parekh maintains significant control over the company’s voting rights. The absence of any pledged shares indicates no immediate liquidity pressure on this portion of the promoter holding.
