Welspun Corp Promoter Group and CEO to Sell 2.4% Stake via Block Deal
Welspun Corp's promoter group and CEO Vipul Mathur plan to sell up to 63 lakh shares, representing about 2.4% of the company's outstanding equity, through a block deal valued around Rs 1,417-1,433 crore. The sale is at a discount of approximately 3-4.1% to the recent closing price and is fully secondary, with no proceeds going to the company. The transaction follows a recent sharp rally in Welspun Corp shares, which have surged significantly in 2026, supported by strong order inflows and market interest.
