VIP Industries' stock jumped over 7% on Wednesday after a large block trade moved about 26% of the company’s shares.
A block deal involving roughly 3.7 crore shares (about 26% of the total equity) was executed on Wednesday. The trade pushed the share price up to ₹393.5 in the morning session, extending the day's gains even though the stock is down almost 19% year‑to‑date.
The buyer and seller were not disclosed immediately. The size of the deal matches the remaining amount that a group of investors, led by Multiples Private Equity, had announced they would buy in a prior open‑offer.
The market took the new block deal as a sign that ownership is continuing to shift, which many investors view as a potential catalyst for future changes in strategy or governance. Even though the shares have posted significant losses this year, the fresh buying activity gave a short‑term boost.
While the share price rose sharply after the deal, the underlying performance of VIP Industries remains weak for the year. Retail investors should weigh the short‑term price move against the longer‑term fundamentals before making any decisions.
