Suzlon Promoters May Raise ₹1,300 Crore via Block Deals: Up to 20 Crore Shares on the Table

In a strategic financial move, Suzlon Energy’s promoters are reportedly planning to raise approximately ₹1,300 crore by selling part of their stake through a series of block deals. As per sources familiar with the matter, this could involve offloading up to 20 crore shares, representing 1.4% of the company’s total equity and around 11% of the promoters’ current stake.

As of March 2025, the renewable energy major has shown impressive growth metrics, even amid short-term fluctuations. On Friday, Suzlon’s stock closed at ₹66.96 on NSE, showing a modest 0.28% gain, while the Nifty 50 climbed 1%. However, the company’s stock has seen a 7.5% decline over the last five sessions, possibly driven by concerns over promoter stake dilution.

Yet, over the past month, Suzlon shares have soared by over 22.4%, reflecting robust investor confidence. The company recently posted strong financials for Q4 FY25, with revenue of ₹3,790 crore and a net profit of ₹1,181 crore.

Market experts remain largely bullish. Out of eight analysts tracking Suzlon, six have issued a ‘Buy’ rating, and two recommend holding the stock. The company has not yet released any official clarification or comment on the ongoing stake sale speculation.

If confirmed, the stake sale could provide liquidity for the promoters while allowing more public participation in Suzlon’s ongoing green energy mission. Industry observers will closely watch for official statements and subsequent market reactions.
