Hindustan Construction Company Limited's Board has approved raising funds up to Rs. 800 crore through issuance of equity shares or equity-linked securities. The methods include qualified institutions placement (QIP), preferential allotment, rights issue, or any combination thereof, subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals. Additionally, the Board approved increasing the company's authorized share capital from Rs. 300 crore to Rs. 400 crore by adding 100 crore new equity shares. This will require amendment to Clause V of the company's Memorandum of Association. The specific pricing, timing, and investor details are yet to be decided.
This Rs. 800 crore equity raise will result in significant share dilution for existing shareholders. The move suggests the company is looking to strengthen its balance sheet, potentially to reduce debt or fund operations in the capital-intensive construction sector.
