Antariksh Industries Ltd has made significant corporate moves, approving a share purchase agreement and an upcoming preferential issue of equity shares. The decisions were formalized during a Board meeting held on June 26, 2026. Concurrently, the company is exploring entry into the logistics business via Nextedge Ecommerce Private Limited (NEPL).

The Board noted the execution of a Share Purchase Agreement with M/s. Riddhi Infocom Solutions LLP and Mr. Alpitkumar Pravinchandra Gor, collectively referred to as the Acquirers. The transaction involves the acquisition of up to 73.48% of Antariksh Industries Ltd’s paid-up equity share capital from Mrs. Gitaben Nitinbhai Patel, an existing promoter.

The Share Purchase Agreement is dated June 26, 2026. The Acquirers are neither related to the Company nor to the Promoter. Upon completion of the transaction and the subsequent open offer, M/s. Riddhi Infocom Solutions LLP and Mr. Alpitkumar Pravinchandra Gor will acquire control over Antariksh Industries Ltd and be classified as promoters.
