YUCCA Merchants Private Limited, a non-promoter entity, acquired 33,99,59,256 equity shares (13.85%) of Standard Capital Markets Ltd through a preferential allotment on May 19, 2025. Before this acquisition, YUCCA held no shares in the company. The company issued a total of 72,45,74,640 new equity shares (face value Re. 1 each) on a preferential basis, expanding its share capital from Rs. 1,73,00,03,000/- (173 crore shares) to Rs. 2,45,45,77,640/- (245.46 crore shares) — a dilution of about 30% for existing shareholders. YUCCA's 13.85% stake comes entirely from this fresh issuance, meaning existing shareholders were collectively diluted by that share of the issuance.
Existing shareholders face significant equity dilution (~30%) due to the large preferential issue. A new non-promoter entity now owns nearly 14% of the company, which may raise governance and concentration concerns. The stock could see pressure depending on the price at which the preferential shares were issued versus market price.
