Clean Science and Technology Promoter Group Realigns Shareholding via Gift

Clean Science and Technology’s promoter group has executed an inter-se transfer of shares via gift on November 27, 2025. This transaction involves several promoter entities gifting shares to other entities within the promoter group. The move leads to adjustments in the individual shareholdings of promoters, while keeping the overall promoter group holding constant.

Promoter Group Shareholding Adjustment

On November 27, 2025, Clean Science and Technology disclosed an internal realignment of shareholding within its promoter group. This adjustment was executed through off-market transactions where certain promoters gifted equity shares to other members of the group. The goal was to reallocate holdings amongst the promoters without altering the group’s total stake in the company.

Key Details of the Share Transfers

Several key transactions occurred during this realignment:

  • Siddhartha Ashok Sikchi acquired 26,00,000 equity shares, increasing his stake to 5.41%.
  • Asha Ashok Boob acquired 86,19,490 equity shares, raising her shareholding to 9.60%.
  • Nilima Krishnakumar Boob acquired 66,29,986 equity shares, bringing her stake to 6.33%.
  • Ashok Ramnarayan Boob transferred 26,00,000 equity shares, resulting in a stake of 3.45%.
  • Parth Ashok Maheshwari transferred 28,09,745 equity shares, decreasing his stake to 0.09%.
  • Nidhi Mohunta transferred 58,09,745 equity shares, lowering her shareholding to 0.09%.
  • Prasad Krishnakumar Boob transferred 34,24,000 equity shares, resulting in a stake of 0.00%.
  • Pooja Vivek Navandar transferred 32,05,986 equity shares, bringing her stake to 0.21%.

Impact of the Transaction

The inter-se transfer of shares has no impact on the overall control or management of Clean Science and Technology. The total shareholding of the promoter group remains unchanged, with the transfer simply redistributing ownership amongst family members and related entities. There was no consideration involved, as the transfers were executed as gifts.
