SpiceJet's Allotment Committee, on November 18, 2025, approved the issuance of 10.41 crore equity shares at Rs. 42.32 per share (including Rs. 32.32 premium) on a preferential basis to non-promoter aircraft lessors belonging to Carlyle Aviation Partners. This follows a September 11, 2025 settlement announcement and results in the conversion of USD 50 million (around Rs. 442 crore) of outstanding lease-related dues into equity, removing that liability from SpiceJet's balance sheet. The allotment represents about 6.83% dilution to existing shareholders, spread across 9 Carlyle Aviation entities, with the largest being SASOF II (J) Aviation Ireland at 1.62%. As part of the deal, SpiceJet also gains access to USD 79.6 million in maintenance reserves and USD 9.9 million in cash credits to offset future lease obligations. If the lessors sell these shares for more than USD 50 million, surplus proceeds will be applied to further reduce SpiceJet's lease liabilities.
Short-term: existing shareholders face about 6.83% dilution, but the deal clears a significant USD 50 million liability and unlocks substantial maintenance reserves, improving balance sheet health. Net effect is positive for long-term shareholders as financial stress from aircraft lessor dues is reduced.
