Each shareholder of Raymond Ltd will receive one share of Raymond Realty for every one share held in Raymond Ltd. The real estate division's standalone operational revenue stood at Rs 1,592.65 crore in the last fiscal, accounting for 24% of Raymond Ltd's total revenue.
The demerger is subject to requisite approvals and sanction from the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) and approval from shareholders and/or creditors, central government, or other competent authorities. Upon the scheme coming into effect, Raymond Realty will issue 6,65,73,731 equity shares of Rs 10 each to the equity shareholders of Raymond Ltd.
