Lenskart Shares Decline After ADIA Sells 2 Percent Stake in Block Deal
Lenskart Solutions shares fell over 2-3 percent following a large block deal on September 21, where Abu Dhabi Investment Authority's Platinum Jasmine A 2018 Trust sold around 3.5 crore shares, representing about 2 percent of the company's equity, for approximately Rs 2,390 crore at around Rs 683 per share. Despite the decline, Lenskart's stock has gained over 50 percent in 2026, supported by strong quarterly results and investor confidence. The deal reduced ADIA's stake to 7.76 percent, maintaining its position as the second-largest public shareholder after SoftBank.
