The FCCBs carry a coupon rate of 6.5% per annum, with a tenure of 10 years and 1 month from the date of full allotment. The Relevant Date for pricing the FCCBs, as per the Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds and Ordinary Shares (Through Depository Receipt Mechanism) Scheme, 1993, was May 14, 2025, and the floor price was determined at RS.106 per equity share.
The issuance of FCCBs and the related commitments represent a significant development that is expected to strengthen the Companys financial position and support its growth initiatives.
2. Sub-Division / Split of Equity Shares
The Board of Directors at their meeting held on June 14, 2025, approved the proposal for sub-division/split of fully paid- up equity shares of the Company from face value of RS.5 each into five (5) equity shares of RS.1 each, fully paid-up. This strategic move was aimed at increasing affordability and liquidity for retail shareholders, thereby enhancing investor participation in the Companys value creation journey.
The approval of shareholders for the aforementioned sub-division, along with the necessary alteration to the Capital Clause (Clause V) of the Companys Memorandum of Association, was obtained through an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) held on July 11, 2025. Pursuant to shareholder approval and in compliance with Section 13, Section 61(1)(d), and Section 64 of the Companies Act, 2013, necessary filings were made with the Registrar of Companies.
The record date for the same was fixed as July 25, 2025 Capital Structure: Before and After Split
| Particulars | Pre-Split | Post-Split |
| Face Value per Share (RS.) | RS.5 | RS.1 |
| Authorised Equity Shares | 12,00,00,000 | 60,00,00,000 |
| Authorised Capital (RS.) | RS.60,00,00,000 | RS.60,00,00,000 |
| Paid-up Equity Shares | 9,75,15,932 | 48,75,79,660 |
| Paid-up Capital (RS.) | RS.48,75,79,660 | RS.48,75,79,660 |
This change was formally incorporated into Clause V of the Memorandum of Association, as detailed below:
• Existing Clause V: RS.60,00,00,000 divided into 12,00,00,000 equity shares of RS.5 each
• Revised Clause V (Post-Split): RS.60,00,00,000 divided into 60,00,00,000 equity shares of RS.1 each.
Effect of the Share Split on Existing Commitments
The Board ensured that adjustments—aligned with all applicable regulatory frameworks—were made to outstanding convertible instruments and employee incentive commitments, including:
• Employee Stock Option Plans (ESOPs)
• Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds (FCCBs)
• Warrants (subject to shareholder approval)
Such adjustments were critical to preserve the economic interests and entitlements of existing holders post-split, and may remain pending until the record date of the split.
Impact and Rationale
As a result of the sub-division/split of equity shares, Kelltons equity has become more affordable, positively impacting retail shareholders by providing broader opportunities for ownership and participation in the Companys future growth. The process followed all statutory requirements and best practices, ensuring a smooth transition while safeguarding existing shareholder and stakeholder interests
3. Allotment of Warrants
The Company also approved raising funds through the preferential issue and allotment of up to 55,00,000 convertible warrants, priced at RS.126 each (including a premium of RS.121), aggregating to RS.69.3 crores. The convertible warrants, issuable to select promoter and non-promoter investors, are each convertible into one equity share of face value RS.5, exercisable in one or more tranches within 18 months from allotment.
The Shareholders approved these proposals at the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) held on July 11, 2025. Following the EGM, the Company obtained in-principle approvals from the stock exchanges for the allotment of warrants.
As on the date of this report, the Company has initiated the process of allotment in compliance with all regulatory requirements and continues to work closely with relevant authorities.
