Promoter Sharad Poddar has sold his entire personal stake of 5,36,633 equity shares (12.23% of total capital) in Jattashankar Industries Ltd through an off-market deal at Rs. 60 per share to non-promoter Nileshbhai Bhagvanjibhai Podara. The transaction, dated July 31, 2025, is based on a purchase agreement signed on December 20, 2024, and was carried out after complying with mandatory open offer requirements under Regulation 3(2) of SEBI (SAST) 2011. As a result, Sharad Poddar's individual holding in the company has gone to zero, while the broader promoter group (PACs) now holds 14,21,100 shares, or 32.39% of the company, down from 44.62% prior to the sale. The total share capital remains unchanged at 43,87,100 equity shares of Rs. 10 each.
This is a meaningful promoter exit that brings the promoter group's stake down to 32.39%, well below the 50% control threshold, which may raise concerns about reduced promoter skin in the game. For shareholders, the off-market nature of the deal at a fixed price of Rs. 60 limits its direct impact on the market price, but the loss of a key individual promoter is a negative signal that could weigh on investor sentiment.
