Veranda Learning Solutions Ltd (+17.35%) Veranda Learning jumped after shareholders approved a composite scheme to demerge its commerce vertical into J.K. Shah Commerce Education Limited. Investors typically re-rate such restructuring moves because a demerger can simplify the corporate structure and pave the way for separate value discovery, including the possibility of a separate listing subject to approvals.
