Promoter and Chairman & MD Ravi B. Goyal has disclosed the invocation of pledge on 16,58,501 equity shares of AGS Transact Technologies by Bajaj Finance Limited across two events: 2,82,489 shares (0.22%) on April 3, 2025 and 13,76,012 shares (1.07%) on April 4, 2025. Additionally, Vineha Enterprises Pvt Ltd had 55,00,000 shares (4.28%) invoked by New Berry Advisors Ltd on April 4, 2025. After these events, Mr. Goyal holds 1,83,15,526 shares (14.26% of share capital), of which 90.77% remain encumbered with Bajaj Finance. The value of encumbered shares stands at approximately ₹11.22 crore against a borrowed amount of ₹19.52 crore (ratio 0.54), with the original borrowing used for personal purposes by the promoter.
This is a negative signal for shareholders — the promoter has lost control of pledged shares due to loan defaults, with encumbered shares now at 90.77% of his holding. The high pledge ratio and invocation events raise concerns about financial stress at the promoter level and could weigh on the stock price.
