Key Provisions
The promoters and promoter group, holding 67.20% of the total equity shares, have confirmed they will not participate in the buyback. The buyback price of ₹250 per share represents a premium of approximately 39-48% over various market price benchmarks, including volume-weighted average prices and closing prices on BSE and NSE during periods preceding the intimation date.
The company has appointed Centrum Capital Limited as the Manager to the Buyback. A Buyback Committee has been constituted with Mr. Debasis Nandy, Mr. Manish Gupta, and Mr. Prithipal Singh Kochhar as members to oversee the implementation process. Mr. Pratham Rawal, Company Secretary, has been designated as the Compliance Officer for the buyback.
Financial Position and Funding
The funds for the buyback will be sourced from the company's free reserves, securities premium account, and internal accruals. The company confirms it is a debt-free entity with strong cash flows, having generated over ₹142 crores in free cash between FY22 and FY25. As of December 31, 2025, the company reported free cash of ₹176 crores, including ₹30 crore generated in Q3FY26.
The buyback is expected to improve return on equity by reducing the equity base and enhance earnings per share. The company estimates the transaction will lead to approximately 400 basis points improvement in Return on Capital Employed (ROCE). The buyback will be completed within 12 months from the date of passing the special resolution.
