This decision follows a request from the entity, which is associated with promoter Mr. Utpal Hemendra Sheth. The company will now undertake necessary steps to complete the reclassification process and obtain all required approvals.
Board Approves Shareholder Reclassification
The Board of Directors of Star Health and Allied Insurance Company Limited convened on October 27, 2026, and has officially approved the reclassification of Sthitaprajna Advisors LLP. This entity will transition from its current status within the Promoter Group category to the Public Shareholder category. This significant decision is a result of a formal request submitted by Sthitaprajna Advisors LLP, an entity linked to promoter Mr. Utpal Hemendra Sheth.
Background of the Reclassification
