The company had announced the buyback of up to 21.50 lakh shares via tender offer, and the latest filing confirms the share capital reconciliation following this extinguishment. This marks the formal conclusion of the ₹296.70-crore buyback that was approved earlier.

The counter trades 6.98% below its 52-week high of ₹1,321.9 and 41.4% above its 52-week low of ₹869.6.
