Promoter Hima Bindu Potluri has released a pledge on 1,06,20,000 equity shares of SMS Pharmaceuticals, representing 11.34% of the company's total share capital. The pledge was originally created in favor of Vistra ITCL (India) Limited as security for a loan taken by VKT Pharma Private Limited, an associate company of the promoter. After this release on November 3, 2025, her remaining pledged shares stand at 30,00,000 (3.20%), down from 1,36,20,000 (14.54%) earlier. Her total shareholding in the company remains unchanged at 1,50,08,840 shares (16.03%). No shares were bought or sold — only the encumbrance (pledge) was released, freeing up those shares.
Positive signal for shareholders — the release of pledged shares reduces the promoter's encumbered holdings significantly (from 14.54% to 3.20%), lowering the risk of forced sale or invocation. This generally improves promoter credibility and reduces overhang concerns on the stock.
