Eraaya Lifespaces Ltd withdrew its BSE application for approving a preferential issue of 2.86 million equity shares on December 19, 2025, following shareholder rejection of related resolutions at the December 9 EGM despite 72%+ favor. Separately, the Supreme Court dismissed former Ebix CEO Robin Raina's review plea on ownership claims.
Corporate Restructuring Update
Eraaya Lifespaces Ltd (BSE: 543235), the hospitality and tech firm post-Ebix acquisition, pulled its regulatory filing for in-principle approval of 28,60,412 equity shares (₹1 face value) on preferential basis to non-promoter investors. This follows the EGM where six special resolutions, including the share issue and borrowing powers, failed despite strong support—needing 75% threshold under Companies Act.
The Supreme Court concurrently dismissed Raina's review petition asserting control over Eraaya and Ebix subsidiaries, building on prior rejections by the apex court and Delhi High Court based on alleged forged documents.
