Betolar Plc: Notification of Change in Holdings according to Chapter 9, Section 10 of the Finnish Securities Markets Act (Ajanta Innovations Ltd)
Betolar Plc has received a notification on May 28, 2024, according to Chapter 9, Section 5 of the Securities Markets Act, stating that Ajanta Innovations Ltd's ownership of shares exceeds 5% of all shares and votes in Betolar Plc. Ajanta Innovations' ownership exceeded the notification threshold before April 19, 2024.
The notification of exceeding the ownership threshold is retroactive because on April 12, 2024, the Parliament approved a government proposal to amend the Securities Markets Act (HE 3/2024 vp), which extends the reporting requirements for significant ownership and voting rights, as well as the application of provisions related to public tender offers and obligation to make a tender offer, to include multilateral trading facilities alongside regulated markets.
