Kwality Wall's (India) Limited has received a Draft Letter of Offer for a mandatory open offer by The Magnum Ice Cream Company HoldCo 1 Netherlands B.V. (along with two PACs), at ₹21.33 per share for up to 61.09 crore equity shares (26% of voting share capital), implying a maximum consideration of about ₹1,303 crore. This open offer follows an underlying transaction where Magnum has agreed to buy a 61.90% controlling stake from Unilever group entities (the current promoters) for approximately €278.55 million (₹2,997.84 crore) under a Share Purchase Agreement dated June 25, 2025. Kwality Wall's was itself recently created via the demerger of HUL's ice cream business (effective December 1, 2025, 1:1 share entitlement ratio), with shares listing on February 16, 2026. The tendering period is scheduled from April 15, 2026 to April 28, 2026, with payment by May 13, 2026.
Public shareholders now have a ₹21.33 per share cash exit opportunity, though the price is notably lower than typical market expectations for an ice cream demerged entity, so shareholders should weigh this floor against any potential post-listing price discovery. Post-open offer, Magnum will become the new promoter, Unilever entities will be reclassified as public shareholders, and Kwality Wall's will operate as part of Magnum's global ice cream platform rather than within the HUL fold.
