Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
UltraTech Cement's board approved issuing an irrevocable, unconditional corporate guarantee of up to USD 55 million for UHG Holdings IFSC Private Limited, an associate company, to help it raise a loan for business purposes. Grasim Industries (promoter) holds 9 percent and Hindalco Industries (promoter group) holds 50 percent in UHG Holdings. The deal is at arm's length and the guarantee creates a contingent liability for UltraTech to that extent, with no other material impact stated.
Contingent liability of up to USD 55 million for associate UHG Holdings. Limited direct impact on UltraTech's own finances but worth monitoring the associate.
