LCC Infotech: Independent Directors Approve Preferential Issue, Triggering Change in Control
LCC Infotech's Independent Directors approved a preferential issue of 4.2 crore equity shares at ₹3.55 each. This transaction will lead to a change in control and the allottee becoming a promoter. The decision was based on a valuation report dated January 3, 2026.
A change in control and a significant preferential allotment can fundamentally alter the company's ownership structure, strategy, and future direction, thus having a high impact.
The approval of a preferential issue with a change in control and a determined issue price is generally viewed positively as it indicates strategic investment and potential growth.
LCC Infotech Limited announced that its Committee of Independent Directors met on January 03, 2026, to consider a significant preferential issue and a subsequent change in control.
The committee approved the preferential allotment of 4,20,00,000 equity shares to a non-promoter entity, which is expected to become a promoter post-transaction. This move is anticipated to result in a change of control for the company.
The issue price for these shares has been determined at ₹3.55 per share, based on a valuation report dated January 03, 2026, prepared by Mr. Manish Santosh Buchasia, an IBBI Registered Valuer. This price adheres to Chapter V of the SEBI ICDR Regulations and includes a control premium due to the anticipated change in control and completion of the Open Offer.
The committee concluded that the proposed preferential allotment and its pricing are fair and reasonable. All three independent directors—Mr. Ramesh Kumar Pandey, Mrs. Priti Lakhotia, and Mrs. Chanchal Kedia—voted in assent for the proposal.
