Quest Capital Markets Limited has clarified a clerical error in its shareholding pattern filings for the quarters ended 30.06.2025, 30.09.2025, 31.12.2025, and 31.03.2026. The disclosure, submitted to BSE Limited under Regulation 31 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, inadvertently listed Spotboy Tracom Private Limited under the footnote for entities having NIL shareholding. The company confirmed that this entity was already correctly disclosed under the Promoter Group category in the original filings.

The error was attributed to a reference to SEBI Circular No. SEBI/HO/CFD/CFD-PoD-2/P/CIR/2025/35 dated March 20, 2025. Quest Capital Markets stated that the inclusion under the NIL shareholding category was purely inadvertent and clerical in nature.

The company explicitly stated that the correction does not alter the total promoter or promoter group shareholding. Furthermore, there is no impact on the shareholding percentage disclosed by the company or on public shareholding and its percentage.

Key Clarifications

The company provided the following points regarding the corrigendum:

No change in total promoter/promoter group shareholding.
No impact on disclosed shareholding percentages.
No impact on public shareholding or its percentage.
The error was purely inadvertent and clerical.

Quest Capital Markets has noted the issue and committed to ensuring due care in future filings. The clarification was signed by Bhawna Agarwal, Company Secretary, on May 26, 2026.
