Refex Industries Increases Stake in Subsidiary VRPL to 77.39% via OCD Conversion
Refex Industries Limited increased its stake in subsidiary Venwind Refex Power Limited (VRPL) from 73.28% to 77.39% through the conversion of ₹43 crore in Class B OCDs into 24,866 equity shares. The conversion aims to strengthen VRPL's capital structure and support future growth. The transaction was completed on March 30, 2026.
The acquisition of an additional 4.11% stake in a subsidiary, while positive for the company's control and strategic alignment, does not represent a significant shift in the overall business model or financial scale of Refex Industries, hence a medium impact.
The company has increased its stake in a subsidiary through a strategic conversion of debentures, which is expected to strengthen the subsidiary's financial structure and support its growth.
Refex Industries Limited has announced the successful conversion of Class B Optional Convertible Debentures (OCDs) in its subsidiary, Venwind Refex Power Limited (VRPL), into equity shares. This conversion, executed on March 30, 2026, has resulted in Refex Industries being allotted 24,866 equity shares of VRPL. Consequently, the company's shareholding in VRPL has increased by 4.11%, rising from 73.28% to 77.39%.
The conversion of OCDs, amounting to ₹43,00,00,000 (43 crore) along with accrued interest, was undertaken to strengthen VRPL's capital structure and support its future growth and operational expansion. This move aims to optimize the subsidiary's debt-equity ratio and enhance its financial sustainability. VRPL, incorporated on December 20, 2024, operates in the Power & Energy sector, focusing on wind power and allied activities.
Refex Industries clarified that this is not a fresh acquisition but a conversion of existing OCDs, meaning there is no fresh infusion of capital from the parent company. The transaction falls within the definition of a related party transaction as VRPL is a subsidiary, but it is conducted at arm's length in accordance with applicable regulations. The shares were acquired at a premium of ₹17,283 per equity share over the face value of ₹10.
