This investment will be made through the conversion of 13,14,08,514 warrants into an equivalent number of equity shares (13.14 crore equity shares). As a result, the consolidated shareholding of the Promoter Group in SpiceJet will increase from 29.11% to 33.47%.

The proceeds from the sale of shares will be used to partially fund the remaining 75% of the amount required for the allotment of equity shares after the warrants are converted. This infusion highlights the Promoter Group’s continued confidence in SpiceJet’s long-term growth potential and strategic direction.

Ajay Singh, chairman and MD of SpiceJet, said, “This fresh infusion reaffirms our unwavering commitment to the airline and its bright future. This investment will further strengthen our financial position and drive growth. SpiceJet has always been a resilient airline, and with this fresh capital, we are well-positioned to enhance our operations and seize new opportunities.”

Meanwhile, a meeting of the board committee of SpiceJet is scheduled to take place on or before 18 March 2025, to approve the allotment of equity shares resulting from the warrant conversion.
