Refrigeration gas maker Navin Fluorine International Ltd, in an exchange filing on March 14, 2024, stated that the company’s Board of Directors had approved an additional investment of ~₹250 crore in its wholly-owned subsidiary, Navin Fluorine Advanced Sciences Limited (NFASL). This investment will be made by subscribing to non-cumulative, non-convertible, non-participating, and redeemable preference shares in the company.
A significant part of the funds will be used to repay the existing inter-corporate deposits and further NFASL business funding requirements. This transaction is likely to be completed by May 2024.
