Welspun Living Limited has announced a share buyback of up to 1.44 crore equity shares (1.0% of total paid-up capital) at ₹175 per share, totaling a maximum consideration of ₹252 crore. The record date is May 22, 2026. The buyback is being conducted via tender offer route through the stock exchange mechanism. Promoters holding 66.24% stake (including Balkrishan Gopiram Goenka as Trustee of Welspun Group Master Trust with 65.73%) have expressed intention to participate. The buyback price represents a premium of 37.26% over the 3-month volume weighted average price on NSE. The buyback size constitutes 6.52% of standalone and 5.65% of consolidated paid-up capital and free reserves, well within the statutory 10% limit.
The buyback offers shareholders a significant 37% premium over recent market prices, providing an attractive exit opportunity. Promoter participation signals confidence in company prospects, though it will increase promoter holding post-buyback. The ₹252 crore outflow reduces cash reserves but may improve per-share metrics.
