Som Distilleries Approves Preferential Issue of Warrants to Promoter for ₹25 Crore
Som Distilleries approved issuing up to 32,12,955 warrants to promoter Deepak Arora at ₹77.81 each, totaling ₹25 Crore. Funds will support working capital and general corporate needs. The issuance requires shareholder and regulatory approval.
The preferential issue of warrants to a promoter for ₹25 Crore is a significant amount that will impact the company's capital structure and potentially fund growth initiatives. However, it is subject to shareholder approval and does not immediately dilute existing equity.
The company is raising capital through a preferential issue to a promoter, which can be seen as a positive step for funding working capital and general corporate purposes, indicating a proactive approach to financial management.
Som Distilleries & Breweries Limited announced the outcome of its Board of Directors meeting held on September 5, 2026. The Board has approved the issuance of up to 32,12,955 convertible warrants at a face value of ₹2 each, with a premium of ₹75.81 per warrant. The issue price is fixed at ₹77.81 per warrant, aggregating to ₹25,00,00,028.55 (₹25 Crore).
These warrants will be issued on a preferential basis to Mr. Deepak Arora, a promoter of the company. This issuance is subject to the approval of shareholders at the upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM) and other necessary regulatory and governmental authorities. The funds raised from this preferential issue will be utilized primarily for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The warrants can be exercised by the holder to subscribe to one equity share per warrant. The exercise can be done in one or more tranches at any time before the expiry of 18 months from the date of allotment. A sum equivalent to 25% of the issue price will be paid upon allotment of the warrants, with the remaining 75% payable at the time of equity share allotment upon exercise of conversion rights. Failure to pay the balance amount will result in forfeiture of the paid amount.
