Kajaria Ceramics Limited has completed the acquisition of an additional 10% equity stake in Kajaria Surfaces Private Limited, making it a wholly-owned subsidiary. The company disclosed this development to the stock exchanges on March 25, 2026, pursuant to SEBI Listing Regulations.

Transaction Overview

The acquisition involved purchasing 9,50,000 equity shares representing 10% of Kajaria Surfaces Private Limited. This strategic move increased Kajaria Ceramics' shareholding from 90% to 100%, with the transaction completed on March 24, 2026.

About Kajaria Surfaces Private Limited

Kajaria Surfaces Private Limited is a relatively new entity in the tiles manufacturing sector, incorporated under the Companies Act, 2013 on December 11, 2023. Despite being a young company, it has demonstrated strong operational performance in its first full year of operations.

Regulatory Compliance and Approvals

The acquisition was structured as a related party transaction, as the equity shares were acquired from existing shareholders of Kajaria Surfaces, including a shareholder who is also a Director of Kajaria Infinity Private Limited, a subsidiary of Kajaria Ceramics. The company ensured full regulatory compliance by:

• Obtaining prior approval from the Audit Committee
• Conducting the transaction on an arms' length basis
• Meeting all disclosure requirements under SEBI Listing Regulations

No additional governmental or regulatory approvals were required for completing this acquisition.

Strategic Rationale

The primary objective of this acquisition was to establish complete ownership and control over Kajaria Surfaces. By converting it into a wholly-owned subsidiary, Kajaria Ceramics can now exercise full operational and strategic control over the tiles manufacturing operations of Kajaria Surfaces.

The acquisition aligns with Kajaria Ceramics' core business of tiles manufacturing, representing a strategic consolidation within its existing business vertical rather than diversification into new sectors.
