Alfa Mercantile Limited, part of the promoter group of Orient Bell Ltd, acquired 1,16,477 equity shares on 30 September 2025, representing about 0.78% of the company's paid-up share capital. This raised the entity's total holding in Orient Bell from 2,142 shares (0.01%) to 1,16,477 shares (0.79%). The disclosure was filed under Regulation 29(2) of SEBI's Substantial Acquisition of Shares & Takeovers Regulations, 2011. The total equity share capital of Orient Bell remained unchanged at approximately 14.69 crore shares. The acquisition was disclosed by Rajesh Bagri, Director of Alfa Mercantile Ltd, on 1 October 2025.
This is a modest increase in stake by a promoter group entity, signalling continued promoter confidence in the company. However, the acquisition is small (under 1%) and unlikely to materially move the stock price. Shareholders should track further promoter group purchases to gauge any larger consolidation in ownership.
