ABFRL has shared an update on its ongoing Scheme of Arrangement involving the company, its wholly-owned subsidiary Aditya Birla Lifestyle Brands Limited (ABLBL), and their shareholders and creditors. The scheme relates to the proposed demerger/carve-out of ABFRL's Lifestyle Brands business (Madura Fashion & Lifestyle, which houses brands like Louis Philippe, Van Heusen, Allen Solly, and Peter England) into ABLBL. Share exchange ratio and other key terms of the restructuring have been disclosed as part of this material update. The scheme is subject to NCLT approval and other regulatory clearances, including from SEBI, stock exchanges, and creditors of both entities.
If approved, this restructuring will separate ABFRL's mature lifestyle brands business into a distinct listed entity, allowing investors to value the high-growth innerwear/pantaloons businesses separately from the lifestyle brands portfolio. Shareholders will receive shares of ABLBL in proportion to their holding in ABFRL, which could lead to near-term stock volatility around the swap ratio and listing event.
