| Promoter Name | Shares Released | % of Share Capital | Post-Event Encumbered Shares |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishnukant C Bhutada | 10,00,000 | 0.5113% | 10,00,000 |
| Dharmavati Bhutada | 6,00,000 | 0.3067% | 7,50,000 |
| Deepak Kumar Innani | 5,00,000 | 0.2556% | 8,50,000 |
| Ramakant Innani | 5,00,000 | 0.2556% | 8,50,000 |
| Om Prakash Innani | 2,00,000 | 0.10225% | 2,00,000 |

Regulatory disclosure details
The filing was submitted to BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited. The reason cited for the release in all cases was the repayment or settlement of self-loans for which these shares served as collateral. The entity from which the shares were released is identified as Bajaj Finance Limited in all instances.
What the numbers show
The data indicates a partial reduction in promoter pledging rather than a complete unwinding. For instance, Vishnukant C Bhutada still holds 10,00,000 shares in an encumbered state post-release, which is equal to the number of shares just released. Similarly, Deepak Kumar Innani and Ramakant Innani each retain 8,50,000 encumbered shares after releasing 5,00,000 shares each. This suggests that while liquidity constraints may have eased slightly for specific loan tranches, a significant portion of promoter holdings remains pledged as security.
