03 Jul 2025

The shares of FSN E-Commerce Ventures, the parent company of Nykaa, fell by as much as 4.5% on Thursday to ₹202.25 apiece on the BSE.

This comes after a block deal saw some six crore shares—about 2.3% equity—change hands, ET Now reported.

The decline was prompted by early investors Harindarpal Singh Banga and Indra Banga's decision to sell their stake in the company through a block deal worth up to ₹1,200 crore.

The entire transaction is a secondary sale with no fresh equity being issued, managed by global investment banks Goldman Sachs (India) Securities and JP Morgan India.
