Race Eco Chain Divests 0.99% Stake in Prime Industries for ₹88.5 Lakhs
Race Eco Chain Limited (RACE) has divested 2,10,000 equity shares, representing a 0.99% stake, in its associate company Prime Industries Limited for ₹88.53 lakhs. Following the settlement on July 1, 2026, Prime Industries has ceased to be an associate company of RACE. Despite the small stake sold, Prime Industries contributed 53.58% (₹3.31 crore) to RACE's consolidated income and 17.65% (₹15.27 crore) to its consolidated net worth in FY26. The transaction was a related party transaction executed at arm's length.
Confidence: HIGH
What changedRACE sold a minor 0.99% stake in Prime Industries Limited, resulting in the loss of 'significant influence' and the cessation of Prime Industries as an associate company.
Why it mattersWhile the cash inflow is small (under 1% of market cap), the accounting impact is notable because the associate contributed a disproportionately high percentage to consolidated income and net worth relative to the equity stake.

📅 Short termThe stock is likely to see minimal impact as the transaction value is small relative to the company's annual revenue of ₹619 crore.
📈 Long termThe divestment simplifies the corporate structure; long-term value depends on the core waste management and biofuel business growth rather than associate contributions.
⚠ Risk flags
- Related party transaction
- High reliance on associate for consolidated income figures in previous year
Key Highlights

This issuance represents approximately 6.7% of the company's net worth (₹74,664 Cr) and will likely support its aggressive capacity expansion target of 200 MTPA by FY26 exit. The interest rates obtained are relatively low, reflecting the company's strong credit profile despite a 24.4% increase relative to its existing debt of ₹20,480 Cr.
Confidence: HIGH
What changedUltraTech Cement has completed a significant ₹5,000 crore debt fundraise through the allotment of three series of Non-Convertible Debentures.
