Torrent Pharma wants to spend more money on a clean-energy project.
Its earlier planned investment was about ₹7.9 crore.
The new investment is reported as either ₹11.87 crore or ₹11.88 crore in the articles.
In return, Torrent Pharma is expected to receive a 26% stake in Torrent Urja 27.
Torrent Urja 27 is planning a project that uses both solar and wind power.
The project will be built in Gujarat.
Torrent Pharma says this can increase its use of renewable electricity.
It also aims to help the company follow rules for captive electricity users.
The payment will be made in cash, and the transaction may take 18 to 21 months to finish.
Torrent Pharmaceuticals plans to increase its investment in Torrent Urja 27 from about ₹7.9 crore to ₹11.87-11.88 crore.
The investment is intended to secure a 26% stake in Torrent Urja 27 through 1,18,79,010 Class A equity shares.
The increase follows higher capacity for Torrent Urja 27’s planned captive hybrid solar-and-wind project in Gujarat.
Torrent Pharma said the project will expand renewable power use and help meet captive-user requirements under Indian electricity laws.
The cash transaction is expected to be completed within 18 to 21 months, while reports say Torrent Urja had zero turnover as of 31 March 2026.
