On the reaction day the stock moved 1.0 pts more than Nifty 100 and 0.6 pts more than its Telecom - Cellular & Fixed line services peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Bharti Airtel is calling the remaining amount on partly paid-up equity shares issued through its September 2021 rights issue. Shareholders who received these shares (at ₹535 per share, ratio 1:14) had initially paid ₹133.75 per share as application money, and now need to pay the final balance of ₹401.25 per share (₹3.75 face value + ₹397.50 premium). The record date was February 6, 2026, and the payment window runs from March 2 to March 16, 2026. Trading in the partly paid-up shares has been suspended from February 6, 2026. After payment, shareholders will receive fully paid-up shares under the regular ISIN, expected within two weeks after the payment period ends. Failure to pay will attract 10% annual interest and risk of forfeiture of shares and any amount already paid.
Shareholders who were allotted these partly paid-up rights shares in 2021 must pay ₹401.25 per share by March 16, 2026, or risk forfeiture. After conversion to fully paid-up shares, the total cost per share works out to ₹535, with these shares then freely tradable on the exchanges.
