With the market cap of Rs 16,924 crore, the shares of Capri Global Capital Ltd are trading at Rs 176. The shares are trading at a PE of 20.1, whereas its industry PE is at 17.8, and have given a return of 100% over the last 5 years.
The shares of Capri Global Capital Limited may continue to attract attention following the acquisition of 30.78 lakh shares, or 0.32% of the company’s paid-up equity, for Rs 54.2 crore by BNP Paribas Financial Markets from Morgan Stanley Asia (Singapore). This acquisition was made at a price of Rs 176.2 per share, reflecting the interest of institutions at current market prices. Such large acquisitions between major global financial majors may reflect their optimism about the company’s medium-term growth outlook.
The participation of BNP Paribas may reflect the continued interest of foreign institutional investors in mid-sized NBFCs, particularly those with a retail and MSME lending business. Although the acquired stake is small in percentage terms, the participation of global institutional majors may help improve market sentiment and liquidity in the stock. Market watchers will be keenly interested in whether this acquisition is the start of a bigger trend among foreign institutional investors.

This has further strengthened Airtel’s majority stake in the company to 51.22% from 51.03% as of December 2025.

THCL Travel Holding Cyprus Limited carried out a bulk sell transaction on 17 February 2026, disposing of 28.33 lakh shares at a price of Rs 158.05 per share on the NSE. The fact that such a large number of shares have been disposed of indicates that the institutional investor has made a move to monetise a part of their stake in the company. Such bulk transactions tend to cause price volatility in the short term.
