Intimation of change of Name from J.R. Foods Limited to Datacipher Limited as per fresh COI issued by MCA.
Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
Datacipher Ltd (formerly J.R. Foods Limited) has received final approval from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs to change its name to Datacipher Limited, effective 19 January 2026. The BSE scrip code (530915) and ISIN (INE989E01018) remain unchanged, meaning the same shares continue to trade under the new name. A fresh Certificate of Incorporation has been issued by the Registrar of Companies. The company is based in Pondicherry and has the same CIN (L15142PY1993PLC000911). As per company law, the old name (J.R. Foods Limited) must be displayed alongside the new name at all places for the next two years. The shift from a food-sector name to a technology/data-sounding name hints at a possible change in business focus or brand identity.
No immediate effect on share count, ISIN, or shareholder value since the legal entity remains the same. Investors may view the rebranding as a signal of a strategic pivot, but actual impact on the stock price will depend on the company's revised business plans and any future disclosures about its new line of operations.
