Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
NSE and BSE sought clarification from RVNL after a news report on ndtvprofit.com claimed the Ministry of Railways had proposed a merger of IRCON and RVNL. RVNL stated it has not received any communication or intimation from the Ministry of Railways or any other authority regarding such a merger. The company confirmed no negotiations are underway, no undisclosed price-sensitive information exists, and no regulatory or legal proceedings are involved. RVNL reiterated its commitment to SEBI Listing Regulations and timely disclosure of material information.
This is a denial of the merger rumor that had driven a surge in RVNL shares. Shareholders should note the company has officially confirmed no such merger proposal exists, which could lead to a correction in the stock price as speculative buying unwinds.
