Keerthi Industries has sent a Postal Ballot notice seeking shareholder approval to sell its Electronics Business (Flex PCBs, Rigid PCBs, Rigid-Flex PCBs, integrated circuits) to Hyderabad Bottling Co. Private Limited (HBCPL), a related party, for INR 36 crores on a slump sale basis. The Electronics Business contributed INR 24.29 crores or 19.87% of the company's FY25 total income of INR 122.23 crores. Two resolutions are proposed: a special resolution for the slump sale under Section 180(1)(a) and an ordinary resolution for the material related party transaction under Section 188(1)(b). The company carries total borrowings of around INR 55.65 crores (INR 29.11 crores term loans/cash credit plus INR 26.54 crores unsecured loans), and plans to use the INR 36 crore proceeds to repay debt, saving about INR 3.6 crores in annual interest. E-voting runs from June 11, 2025 to July 10, 2025, with results expected by July 12, 2025.
If approved, the company will exit its Electronics Business and use the proceeds to significantly deleverage, targeting debt-free status within two years. This is a material restructuring for shareholders — the Electronics division accounts for nearly a fifth of revenue, and the buyer is a related party (promoter group), which is why public shareholder approval is mandatory.
