Viji Finance Limited's board has approved issuing up to 12.75 crore warrants on a preferential basis, each convertible into one equity share of face value ₹1 at a price of ₹2.80 per warrant, aggregating up to ₹35.70 crore. Allottees must pay 25% upfront and the remaining 75% on exercise, with an 18-month conversion window after which unexercised warrants lapse. The issue is proposed to 22 non-promoter allottees, mostly HNIs and HUFs from the Jhaveri, Sanghvi, Vora, Rathod, and Jain families, none of whom currently hold promoter status. The preferential issue is subject to shareholder approval at an upcoming Extraordinary General Meeting. Post full conversion, the allottees would collectively hold roughly 47% of the expanded share capital.
This is a heavily dilutive preferential warrant issue — at full conversion the share count could grow by roughly 90%, which may pressure the stock price. Existing public shareholders should note the significant equity dilution and the relatively low issue price of ₹2.80 per share, and watch for the EGM outcome.
