Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Orient Cement board approved amalgamation with parent Ambuja Cements, which holds 72.66 percent. Exchange ratio: 33 Ambuja shares (face value Rs 2) for every 100 Orient shares (face value Re 1). No cash involved. OCL FY25 standalone revenue Rs 2,708.83 crore versus Ambuja standalone Rs 19,453.58 crore. Both are Adani group cement companies. Subject to NCLT and other statutory approvals.
OCL minority shareholders get 33 Ambuja shares per 100 OCL shares held, likely leading to OCL delisting and Adani cement business simplification.
