Bajaj Auto Announces Buyback of 46.94 Lakh Shares at ₹12,000
Bajaj Auto is buying back up to 46.94 lakh equity shares at ₹12,000 per share. The total buyback value is up to ₹5,632.80 crore. The buyback is being conducted via tender offer. Promoters will not participate in the buyback.
The buyback amount is significant, but it represents a relatively small percentage of the total equity, suggesting a moderate impact on the company's financials and market dynamics.
The company is returning surplus cash to shareholders through a buyback, which is generally viewed positively by the market as it can increase EPS and shareholder value.
Bajaj Auto Limited has announced a buyback of up to 46,94,000 fully paid-up equity shares, representing approximately 1.68% of the total equity share capital. The buyback will be conducted at a price of ₹12,000 per share, payable in cash, for an aggregate amount of up to ₹5,632.80 crore (excluding transaction costs). This initiative, approved by the Board of Directors on May 6, 2026, and subsequently by shareholders through a postal ballot on June 18, 2026, aims to return surplus cash to shareholders and enhance earnings per share and return on equity.
The buyback will be executed on a proportionate basis through the tender offer route, in accordance with the Companies Act, 2013, and SEBI (Buy-Back of Securities) Regulations, 2018. The buyback price represents a premium of approximately 26.31% to 26.53% over the volume-weighted average market price in the three months preceding April 30, 2026.
The company has published a public announcement regarding the buyback in the Financial Express (English), Jansatta (Hindi), and Loksatta (Marathi) on June 22, 2026. The promoters and promoter group have expressed their intention not to participate in this buyback.
