Impact Assessment
This is a routine ESOP/ESOS listing circular with low market impact. The newly listed shares represent employee compensation conversions and are generally modest in quantity relative to each company’s total outstanding equity. Lenskart Solutions Limited has the largest issuance at 15,45,820 shares, while Ideaforge Technology Limited has the smallest at 7,026 shares. Since no lock-in applies, these shares are immediately tradable from March 2, 2026, which may introduce minor incremental supply-side liquidity for the affected stocks. No significant price or volatility impact is anticipated.
Impact Justification
Routine ESOP/ESOS listing notification with no lock-in restrictions. Share quantities are relatively small compared to typical outstanding equity, and this is a standard administrative listing of employee benefit shares across 11 companies.
