Sundram Fasteners Limited has received formal requests for reclassifying three promoter group entities to public category status following recent corporate mergers. The requests, dated April 22, 2026, involve entities that have been dissolved through amalgamation schemes approved by regulatory authorities.

Corporate Restructuring Details

The reclassification requests stem from two separate merger transactions completed in recent months. The first involved Lakshminarayana Ancillaries Private Limited (LNL) and Upasana Properties Private Limited (UPP), which merged with UFL Properties Private Limited on October 16, 2025, following approval from the Regional Director, Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Southern Region, Chennai.

The second transaction involved Upasana Private Limited (UPL), which merged with TVS Sundram Fasteners Private Limited on March 27, 2026, pursuant to an order from the Hon'ble National Company Law Tribunal, Chennai Bench dated February 18, 2026.

Shareholding Impact and Compliance

Following the merger of LNL and UPP with UFL Properties Private Limited, the combined shareholding was transferred to UFL. LNL's 9,656 equity shares were vested with UFL, bringing UFL's total holding to 1,09,830 equity shares, representing 0.05% of the paid-up equity share capital.

Both requesting entities have provided comprehensive declarations under Regulation 31A(3)(b) of SEBI Listing Regulations, confirming that the dissolved entities do not hold shares, exercise control, have special rights, or maintain any management representation in Sundram Fasteners.
