At Rs 111.51 per share, 1.1 crore shares carry a total exercise price of about Rs 122.66 crore. The 75% balance of that amount is about Rs 92 crore, which matches the figure in the filing.
After the allotment, paid-up equity share capital rose to Rs 2,80,32,66,866, made up of 1,40,16,33,433 equity shares.
Of the 3,25,18,900 warrants allotted in October, 1,10,00,000 have now been converted. That leaves about 2,15,18,900 warrants outstanding.
Promoter stake: reported figures differ
Reports give different promoter shareholding figures for this allotment, and the figures measure different things.
- The BSE shareholding table shows Embassy Property Developments Private Limited rising from 19,37,92,592 shares (13.94%) to 20,47,92,592 shares (14.61%). The 14.61% is that single entity's holding.
- One report puts the aggregate promoter and promoter group holding at 43.13% after the larger capital base.
- Before this allotment, a report dated 14 October 2026 put the promoter group's non-diluted stake at 42.68%, and its fully diluted stake at 43.39%.
Readers should not treat 14.61% as the stake of the whole promoter group.
Related promoter activity
A promoter group disclosure covering 20 August 2025 to 12 October 2026 also records open-market buying. Chairman Jitendra Virwani acquired 3,48,500 shares from the open market, as reported on 14 October 2026.
The company has used warrant conversions before. On 23 May 2025 it reported Rs 1,060 crore from converting 12.7 crore shares. In May 2025, Bellanza Developers, a promoter group entity, was allotted 5.0 crore shares for Rs 4.15 billion, and NCL SG Holdings, a Blackstone real estate fund, took 7.7 crore shares for Rs 6.45 billion.
What it changes for investors and buyers
For investors, the allotment adds about Rs 92 crore in cash to the company and increases the paid-up share base. One outlet read the infusion as promoter confidence and a boost to near-term liquidity. That is the outlet's own reading, not a company statement.
The filing does not change any project's terms, prices or possession dates. Neither the company nor a regulator has linked the allotment to homebuyers.
The company's operating numbers for the quarter give more context. Q2 FY27 pre-sales were Rs 3,225 crore, up from Rs 868 crore in Q1 FY27. H1 FY27 pre-sales were Rs 4,093 crore, against Rs 607 crore in H1 FY26. Q2 FY27 collections were Rs 546 crore, and H1 FY27 collections were Rs 1,041 crore.
What comes next
About 2.15 crore warrants remain outstanding and can be converted until around April 2027. Any further allotment will be reported through the exchange filings.
Leadership is also changing. On 9 October 2026 the board approved the re-designation of Aditya Virwani as MD and CEO from 1 January 2027. Sachin Shah steps down as CEO and Executive Director at the close of business on 31 December 2026.
The company has set a pre-sales target of Rs 8,000 crore for FY27. Its Q2 FY27 pre-sales of Rs 3,225 crore were a large step toward that target.
