Jagran Prakashan Ltd has closed its trading window for designated persons and their immediate relatives effective July 1, 2026. The restriction remains in force until the conclusion of 48 hours after the declaration of financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. This measure prevents the misuse of unpublished price-sensitive information surrounding the upcoming financial disclosure.

The closure follows the provisions of the SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015, along with relevant stock exchange circulars and the company's internal Code of Conduct. The blackout period applies to all dealings in the company's securities by the specified individuals.

The date of the board meeting to consider the Q1FY27 results will be intimated separately. Amit Jaiswal, Chief Financial Officer, Company Secretary & Compliance Officer, signed the disclosure on June 19, 2026.

Jagran Prakashan Limited disclosed that a fresh application, being I.A. No. 57 of 2026, has been filed in the ongoing company petition titled Mahendra Mohan Gupta and Ors. v. Devendra Mohan Gupta and Ors. (C.P. No. 64 of 2023). The application was filed by Mr. Mahendra Mohan Gupta, Mr. Shailesh Gupta, and VRSM Enterprises LLP before the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Allahabad. The tribunal listed the application on June 9, 2026, and deferred the matter for hearing to July 8, 2026, at 12:30 PM, alongside the main petition.

The applicants sought several reliefs, including restraining respondents from accessing the demat account of Jagran Media Network Investment Private Limited (JMNIPL) and restoring the position of the authorised signatory as it existed on April 23, 2026. The application also requested the tribunal to set aside the resolutions passed at the Extraordinary General Meeting (EOGM) held on May 29, 2026, including the removal of seven independent directors and one whole-time director. However, the senior counsel for the applicants stated they were not pressing for any interim orders at this stage.

The disclosure references a prior order dated May 26, 2026, from the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT), which directed that the implementation of the EOGM resolutions be kept in abeyance until the disposal of C.P. No. 64 of 2023. The NCLAT had noted the intermingling of issues and requested the NCLT to hear remaining arguments and dispose of the petition expeditiously. The NCLT has now allowed the respondents time to file a response by July 3, 2026.

The legal dispute centres on Sections 241, 242, and 244 of the Companies Act, 2013, and involves disagreements within the promoter group regarding voting rights. Specifically, the conflict pertains to the authority to vote on behalf of JMNIPL, which holds a significant portion of the paid-up equity share capital. The company stated that it would provide further disclosures upon material developments in the proceedings.
