SEPC proposes ₹1,530 crore all-share deal to buy 90% of UAE engineer Avenir

AI Market Summary
SEPC's proposed ₹1,530 crore all-share acquisition of 90% of UAE-based Avenir expands exposure to MENA oil & gas projects via ADNOC prequalification, while avoiding immediate cash outflow. However, the deal requires a large authorized capital increase and materially higher borrowing/investment limits, raising future leverage and dilution considerations. With closing targeted for December 2026, near-term market impact appears limited outside the company's equity.
