Paras Defence Approves Grant of 1,56,400 Stock Options Under ESOP 2024
Paras Defence granted 1,56,400 stock options under its ESOP 2024 plan. The exercise price is ₹650 per share. Options vest over three years and are exercisable within five years post-vesting. This follows a stock split that adjusted the total option pool and exercise price for earlier grants.
The grant of stock options is a routine event for employee compensation and retention. The impact on the company's financials or stock price is expected to be minimal in the short term, as these options are subject to vesting and exercise conditions.
The announcement details the grant of stock options, which is a standard employee incentive. While it represents an increase in the option pool due to a stock split, it does not immediately impact the company's financial performance or shareholder value in a significant positive or negative way.
Paras Defence and Space Technologies Limited announced that its Nomination and Remuneration Committee, in a meeting held on March 13, 2026, approved the grant of stock options to eligible employees under the "Paras Defence and Space Technologies Limited - Employee Stock Option Plan 2024".
A total of 1,56,400 stock options, each with a face value of ₹5, have been granted. These options are part of the overall 15,90,000 stock options available under the ESOP 2024 plan.
The exercise price for these options has been set at ₹650 per share. The granted options will have a vesting period of a minimum of three years from the date of grant, in tranches. All vested options must be exercised within a maximum of five years from the date of vesting.
Previously, on January 22, 2025, 78,450 options were granted under Phase 1. Following a stock split/sub-division on July 4, 2025, where the face value was reduced from ₹10 to ₹5, the total option pool was revised to 15,90,000 options. Consequently, the Phase 1 grant was adjusted to 1,56,900 options, and the exercise price was revised from ₹1,000 to ₹500 per option.
