HDFC Mutual Fund has increased its aggregate holding in Vishal Mega Mart Ltd from 5.94% to 8.81% of paid-up equity share capital, acquiring an additional 2.90% (13,55,87,022 equity shares) through open market transactions as of February 27, 2026. The previous holding of 5.94% (27,59,79,415 shares) was disclosed on June 18, 2025, and the new total stands at 41,15,66,437 shares. The acquisition was carried out across multiple HDFC MF schemes including Flexi Cap Fund, Mid Cap Fund, Small Cap Fund, and several index/ETF funds. The disclosure was filed under SEBI Regulation 29(2) of the Takeover Regulations, 2011, and HDFC MF clarified that it does not belong to the promoter or promoter group.
This is a significant institutional buying signal, with a large domestic fund house steadily accumulating shares in Vishal Mega Mart. The holding is now within striking distance of the 10% disclosure threshold, which could attract further attention from retail investors tracking institutional flows.
