Prudential Plans 2% ICICI Prudential AMC Stake Sale
Prudential plans to sell some of its shares in ICICI Prudential AMC.
The shares equal up to 2% of the company.
The sale is planned for August 27, 2026, through the stock market.
It may happen all at once or in several parts.
If all the shares are sold, the promoters will own 85.60% instead of 87.60%.
This would leave more shares available for public investors.
The sale is meant to help the company follow minimum public-shareholding rules.
ICICI Bank and Prudential-related entities have agreed not to buy shares during the sale.
The regulatory filing did not give a floor price, although Mint reported a possible price range.
Prudential Corporation Holdings plans to sell up to 9,885,169 ICICI Prudential AMC shares, representing 2% of its paid-up equity capital.
The open-market transaction is scheduled for August 27, 2026, and may take place in one or multiple tranches.
If fully completed, promoter and promoter-group ownership will decline from 87.60% to 85.60%.
