Sagar Cements Ltd, the promoter of Andhra Cements Ltd, sold 66,76,843 equity shares (7.24% of paid-up capital) through a stock exchange Offer for Sale on March 17-18, 2026. The promoter has now been classified as the seller in a SEBI Takeover Regulations disclosure. Before the sale, Sagar Cements held 58.49% of shares directly and 23.75% as encumbered shares, totalling 82.24% of Andhra Cements. After the sale, direct holding dropped to 51.25% (4,72,38,222 shares), with encumbered shares unchanged at 23.75%, bringing the total to 75.00%. The sale was executed under SEBI's OFS framework, with the floor price at Rs 10 per share.
This is a significant promoter stake reduction of over 7% in a single transaction. While the promoter remains the majority shareholder at 75%, the sale will increase public float and may lead to short-term price pressure depending on demand during the OFS. Investors should monitor the final allotment price and post-OFS trading activity to gauge market sentiment.
