Bharti Airtel Issues Final Call Notice for Partly Paid Shares
Bharti Airtel has issued a final reminder notice to holders of 1,110,668 partly paid-up equity shares. The company is collecting the First and Final Call amount of ₹401.25 per share. This is the definitive deadline for these payments. ## What just happened Bharti Airtel is reminding shareholders holding 1,110,668 partly paid-up shares that the final call payment is due. The total amount per share is ₹401.25, comprising a ₹3.75 face value component and a ₹397.50 premium component. ## Why this matters Shareholders must pay the outstanding amount between July 2, 2026, and July 16, 2026. Failure to do so will result in the forfeiture of their shares, including any amounts already paid. Interest at 10% per annum will also accrue on the overdue amount from March 17, 2026. ## The backstory Bharti Airtel previously converted 391,176,994 shares. This notice addresses the remaining outstanding shares from a past issue. The company is concluding this capital collection phase. ## What changes now This is the last communication regarding this specific call. Shareholders have a clear two-week window to settle their dues. After payment, the company expects to convert these into fully paid-up shares within 2-3 weeks. ## Risks to watch Non-payment leads to forfeiture of shares and associated paid amounts. Trading in these specific partly paid-up shares remains suspended until conversion. ## Peer comparison Telecom companies like Reliance Jio and Vodafone Idea also undertake capital raises. However, this specific call relates to a defined rights issue by Bharti Airtel. ## Context metrics (time-bound) The payment window is from July 2, 2026, to July 16, 2026. Interest accrues from March 17, 2026, at 10% per annum.
