Essar Ports complies with minimum public shareholding norms as per SEBI

20 Jun 2013 Evaluate

Essar Ports, one of India’s leading private port & terminal operators, has compiled with minimum public shareholding norms as per SEBI, subsequent to the conversion of the global depository shares (GDS) by Port of Antwerp. The company has done this as per the SEBI approval received earlier. Port of Antwerp International UK, a subsidiary of the Port of Antwerp, has converted the GDS held by it in Essar Ports into equity shares, bringing down the promoter holding in the company to 74.97%.

Essar Ports had earlier announced successful completion of its offer for sale (OFS) process for sale of equity shares of the company, aggregating to 5.33% of the paid up share capital of the company. The balance dilution was to be achieved by way of conversion of GDS held by Port of Antwerp International UK as they had expressed their desire to convert the GDS into equity shares of Essar Ports.

With this conversion, Essar Ports is now in compliance of the SEBI minimum public shareholding requirement, with the Essar Group holding going down to 74.97%.

Essar Ports, part of the multinational conglomerate Essar Group, is engaged in business of providing end-to-end logistics services with investments in ports and terminals, logistics services, sea transportation and oilfield drilling services.
