In a strategic move, Hazel Infra, the promoter behind Swan Defence and Heavy Industries, is set to divest a 5.01% stake in the company via an Offer for Sale (OFS) next week, sources reported on Thursday.
This decision, occurring amid market fluctuations and challenges in the maritime sector due to Middle East tensions, aims to comply with minimum public shareholding norms, according to sources familiar with the development.
The process will involve investor road shows before finalizing the floor price. JM Financial has been appointed as the merchant banker for this transaction, which follows SEBI's guidelines.
