Padam Cotton Yarns rights issue draft on Oct 9, 2026

Board meeting set for October 9

Padam Cotton Yarns Ltd has scheduled a board meeting on October 9, 2026 to consider and approve the Draft Letter of Offer for a proposed rights issue of equity shares. The same meeting will also take up the appointment of intermediaries for the issue. The company has referenced multiple board and corporate action dates linked to rights issue agendas across 2026. For shareholders and the market, the Draft Letter of Offer is a key step because it typically consolidates the issue structure, regulatory positioning, and process milestones.

The disclosure places October 9 as the next decision point on documentation and execution readiness. It comes after the board’s earlier approval to raise funds through a rights issue of equity shares. While the Draft Letter of Offer approval is procedural in nature, it signals continued movement on the fundraising plan.

What the board will consider

The agenda for the October 9, 2026 board meeting has two specific items. First is the consideration and approval of the Draft Letter of Offer for the rights issue. Second is the discussion around appointing intermediaries for the issue.

Intermediaries typically include parties such as lead managers, registrars, and other service providers required to execute a rights issue and handle application, allotment, and listing processes. The company’s note does not specify which intermediaries are being evaluated or whether any have already been shortlisted. It also does not publish the draft terms within this update, beyond referencing the documentation step.

Earlier approval: rights issue up to ₹27 crore

Padam Cotton Yarns’ board approved raising funds up to ₹27 crore through a rights issue of equity shares. The approval date mentioned is September 10, 2026. The company stated that the equity shares proposed under the rights issue carry a face value of Re 1 each.

The company also stated that the issue is subject to receipt of regulatory and statutory approvals. It is to be conducted in accordance with Section 62(1)(a) of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018.

The disclosure adds that eligible equity shareholders as on the record date, to be notified subsequently, will be able to participate in the issue. However, this September 2026 approval note does not provide the price, entitlement ratio, or record date.

Record date, ratio, and issue price disclosed for a rights issue

Separate rights issue details in the provided information specify a record date of February 24, 2026, an issue price of ₹2.07 per share, and a rights ratio of 7:10. Under the 7:10 ratio, eligible shareholders receive the right to apply for 7 additional shares for every 10 shares held as on the record date. Each share is stated to carry a face value of ₹1.

The information also states that the subscription period for the rights issue is 09-10-2025 to 24-02-2026 and that the last day to apply is 24-02-2026, with a typical subscription window being 15 to 30 days. In addition, a separate schedule of key dates is also provided for a rights issue process in March 2026, which includes an issue opening date of March 2, 2026 and an issue closing date of March 9, 2026.

Rights issue process milestones and extensions in March 2026

Padam Cotton Yarns disclosed that it extended its rights issue closing date from March 9, 2026 to March 13, 2026, following a board decision made on March 9, 2026. After the completion of the issue process, the board approved allotment of rights equity shares during a meeting held on March 16, 2026.

The company stated it allotted 9,03,70,000 rights equity shares at an issue price of ₹2.07 per share, raising ₹18.70659 crore (stated as ₹1870.659 lakhs). It also specified that the issue price included a premium of ₹1.07 per share over the Re 1 face value.

The rights issue received a total of 1,209 applications for 9,45,37,124 rights equity shares, with 963 valid applications ultimately receiving allotment. The rights equity shares commenced trading on BSE from March 19, 2026.

Paid-up capital impact stated after allotment

Following the March 16, 2026 allotment, the company stated that the infusion of capital increased its total paid-up equity share capital from ₹129.10 crore to ₹219.47 crore. This is a material jump in paid-up capital and indicates significant issuance volume relative to the existing equity base.

The disclosure links this fundraising activity to earlier approvals for similar fundraising efforts planned in late 2025 and early 2026. It frames the rights issue activity as part of an ongoing attempt to reinforce the company’s financial position, without detailing specific end-use of proceeds in the provided text.

Regulatory filings and pre-issue advertisements

The information also notes that Padam Cotton Yarns published pre-issue advertisements for its rights issue in compliance with Regulation 84 of SEBI ICDR Regulations and Regulation 30 of SEBI Listing Regulations. It further states that the Letter of Offer, dated February 18, 2026, was filed with the stock exchange and submitted to SEBI for information and dissemination.

The company also stated it received in-principle approval from BSE Limited for the proposed rights offering and confirmed February 24, 2026 as the record date after its board meeting on February 18, 2026. Another disclosure references a proposed rights issue worth up to ₹32.40 crore, again tied to the February 2026 board meeting and in-principle approval from BSE.

How investors could apply: ASBA and CAF route

The rights issue process described requires applications through the ASBA (Applications Supported by Blocked Amount) process. The information states investors can apply online if their bank supports ASBA. It also describes an offline route in which the company’s Registrar and Transfer Agent (RTA) sends a Composite Application Form (CAF) to eligible shareholders.

Under the offline route, investors are instructed to fill out and submit the CAF to a Self-Certified Syndicate Bank (SCSB) branch. The disclosures also state that allotments are in dematerialized form only.
