DCW Limited Compensates Shareholders for Fractional Shares Post-Amalgamation
DCW Limited has compensated eligible shareholders for fractional shares resulting from the amalgamation of DTCPL and SBPL. The net sale proceeds of ₹446.65 were distributed to 18 shareholders on May 25, 2026. This compliance follows the NCLT's sanction of the amalgamation scheme effective February 17, 2026.
The announcement pertains to a procedural step in a past amalgamation and involves a very small financial sum (₹446.65) distributed to a limited number of shareholders. It has minimal to no impact on the company's overall operations or market position.
The announcement is a routine compliance filing regarding the compensation for fractional shares post-amalgamation and does not contain significant new financial or strategic information that would impact the company's valuation.
DCW Limited has reported the compensation provided to eligible shareholders of Dhrangadhara Trading Company Private Limited (DTCPL) and Sahu Brothers Private Limited (SBPL) for fractional shares, following their amalgamation with DCW. This action is in compliance with SEBI's Master Circular dated June 20, 2023. The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Ahmedabad Bench, had sanctioned the amalgamation scheme on January 22, 2026. The appointed date for the scheme was July 01, 2024, and it became effective on February 17, 2026. A record date of February 02, 2026, was set for the issuance of DCW equity shares to the eligible shareholders of the transferor companies.
On February 19, 2026, DCW allotted 12,80,500 equity shares to DTCPL shareholders and 5,24,59,860 equity shares to SBPL shareholders. For any fractional share entitlements, DCW consolidated these and issued them to a nominated trustee, Mr. Romu Manik Malkani. The trustee sold these consolidated fractional shares in the open market on May 15, 2026, within the permitted timeline. The net sale proceeds, amounting to ₹446.65 after deducting expenses and taxes, were distributed to 18 eligible shareholders on May 25, 2026, via electronic credit.
Reports from DCW's Audit Committee and Independent Directors, certifying the compensation for fractional shares, have been submitted to the stock exchanges. These reports were prepared after reviewing the NCLT order, the scheme of amalgamation, the return of allotment (Form PAS-3), a contract note for the sale of fractional shares, and confirmation from the Company Secretary.
