What does CCPS mean here?

CCPS are compulsorily convertible preference shares. The company filing says the Blackstone investment is through CCPS and that the proposed transaction remains subject to customary regulatory and shareholder approvals. Each CCPS converts into one equity share. The board outcome says conversion happens on a date agreed with the holders or, at the latest, 17 months and 15 days after allotment; the press release rounds this to within 18 months. On a fully diluted basis after the issue, Ingot SG Pte. Ltd. would hold 15.57%, which the press release describes as about 16%.

How do the promoter warrants work?

Each warrant gives the right to one equity share at Rs 602. Under SEBI rules, 25% of the warrant amount is paid upfront and the remaining 75% when the warrant is exercised, within 18 months of allotment. If a warrant is not exercised in time, it lapses.

What else did the board approve?

The same 10 November outcome approved raising the authorised share capital and changing the capital clause of the Memorandum of Association, amending the Articles of Association (including special rights for the Blackstone investor), and calling the 4 December meeting. That meeting will also consider re-designating R. Venkataraman from Joint Managing Director to Non-Executive Non-Independent Director. All of these need shareholder approval.

What changes in the capital position?

The company says the entire investment is primary capital. On a pro forma basis for September 2026, it says the capital adequacy ratio would rise from about 17% to about 30%. Capital adequacy is a measure comparing a lender's capital with the risks on its balance sheet.
