Lenskart Grants 6.5 Lakh Employee Stock Options at ₹410 Exercise Price
Lenskart Solutions has granted 6,50,000 ESOPs to employees under its 2021 plan. The exercise price is ₹410 per share, based on market prices with a potential 25% discount. This grant corresponds to 6,50,000 equity shares.
Granting employee stock options is a common practice for employee retention and motivation. While it can lead to dilution, the immediate impact on the company's financials or stock price is generally considered low unless the quantum is exceptionally large or unusual.
The announcement pertains to a routine grant of employee stock options, which is a standard corporate practice and does not inherently indicate positive or negative financial performance.
Lenskart Solutions Limited has announced the grant of 6,50,000 Employee Stock Options (ESOPs) to eligible employees under the Lenskart Employee Stock Option Plan, 2021. The decision was approved via a circular resolution by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee on August 12, 2026.
Each ESOP granted represents one equity share of the company. The exercise price for these options is set at ₹410 per share. This price is determined by the average closing price of the company's shares for 30 days prior to the grant date on the stock exchange with the highest trading volume, with a maximum discount of 25% allowed.
The company has confirmed that the scheme is in compliance with SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits) Regulations, 2021. A total of 6,50,000 equity shares, each with a face value of ₹2, will arise if all granted options are vested and exercised. The announcement was made on August 12, 2026.
