UltraTech Cement Limited has issued newspaper advertisements across Business Standard All India Edition and Navshakti Mumbai Edition, informing shareholders about a new special window for transfer and dematerialisation of physical securities. The announcement, made through Company Secretary Dhiraj Kapoor on April 1, 2026, follows SEBI Circular No. HO/38/13/11(2)2026-MIRSD-POD/I/3750/2026 dated January 30, 2026.

Special Window Timeline and Purpose

SEBI had discontinued transfer of physical shares from April 1, 2019. However, a previous special window operated from July 7, 2025 to January 6, 2026, for re-lodgement of physical share transfer requests originally submitted before April 1, 2019 but returned due to documentation deficiencies. To further facilitate investors, SEBI has opened another special window for one year from February 5, 2026 to February 4, 2027.

Eligibility Criteria

The eligibility for lodging requests under the current special window depends on specific conditions:

Exclusions and Processing Requirements

Certain cases will not be considered under this window:

• Cases involving disputes between transferor and transferee
• Securities transferred to Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF)

All shares re-lodged during this period will be processed through the transfer-cum-demat route, meaning they will only be issued in dematerialised form after transfer and will be subject to a lock-in period of one year.

UltraTech cement Limited has received a significant order from GST authorities in Uttarakhand, disclosing a tax demand of ₹53.81 crores along with penalties under Regulation 30 of SEBI listing requirements. The cement major communicated this development to stock exchanges on 31st March, 2026.

GST Authority Order Details

The Additional Commissioner, Central Goods and Services Tax, Dehradun, Uttarakhand has passed an Order in Original confirming substantial financial demands against the company. The order encompasses multiple components of tax liability and penalties spanning several financial years.

Nature of Alleged Violations

The GST order addresses alleged violations spanning five financial years from FY 2019-20 to FY 2023-24. The authorities have identified two primary areas of concern in their assessment:

• Differential tax liability: Issues related to tax calculations and payments
• Non-reversal of Input Tax Credit (ITC): Alleged failure to reverse input tax credits as required under GST regulations

These violations form the basis of the substantial tax demand and penalty imposed by the GST authorities.

Company's Response and Financial Impact

UltraTech Cement has indicated its intention to challenge the GST authority's order through appropriate legal channels. The company has provided a clear assessment of the potential financial implications of this development.

The company's confidence in contesting the order suggests it believes there are grounds to challenge the GST authority's findings and calculations.

Regulatory Compliance

The disclosure was made in compliance with Regulation 30 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Company Secretary and Compliance Officer Dhiraj Kapoor signed the communication to BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited, ensuring transparency with stakeholders and regulatory authorities.
