Orient Bell Limited's Compensation Committee, at its meeting on 6 August 2025, approved the grant of 48,000 Employee Stock Options (ESOPs) under the company's ESOP Scheme 2021. Each option is convertible into one equity share of face value Rs. 10. The exercise price has been set at Rs. 10 per share (at face value), subject to committee discretion. The options will vest after a minimum of one year from the grant date, with a maximum exercise window of five years. The diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended 30 June 2025 stood at negative Rs. 0.45 on a standalone unaudited basis.
The grant size is small (48,000 shares), so dilution impact is minimal. However, exercising options at face value (well below market price) means existing shareholders may face some value transfer once these are exercised. The negative diluted EPS reflects ongoing profitability concerns.
