MTAR Technologies files SEBI SAST disclosure for Saranya Loka Reddy

What MTAR Technologies announced

On 1 July 2026, MTAR Technologies Ltd (BSE: 543270) submitted a disclosure under Regulation 31(1) and 31(2) of the SEBI (Substantial Acquisition of Shares & Takeovers) Regulations, 2011. The filing informs the market that Saranya Loka Reddy has undertaken a substantial acquisition of MTAR shares. The company did not provide further quantitative details in the brief announcement.

Regulatory background

Regulation 31(1) mandates that any person acquiring shares which, taken together with any shares already held, crosses the 5 % threshold must immediately disclose the acquisition to the stock exchange. Regulation 31(2) requires the acquirer to file a detailed statement within 48 hours, outlining the number of shares acquired, the price paid, and the purpose of the acquisition. These rules aim to ensure transparency and protect the interests of minority shareholders.

Information disclosed

The filing, received by the exchange at 12:22 UTC on 1 July 2026, identifies Saranya Loka Reddy as the acquirer. Apart from the name of the acquirer, the public notice does not reveal:

• the exact number of shares acquired,
• the percentage of total equity now held,
• the consideration paid, or
• any intended strategic actions post‑acquisition.

The absence of these figures suggests that the detailed statement required under 31(2) may be submitted separately or is pending.
