Bajaj Consumer Care buyback: key dates for 2025

What has been announced

Bajaj group companies have made multiple corporate action announcements that investors are tracking in September 2025. Bajaj Consumer Care Limited has disclosed the key dates for its share buyback through the tender offer route. Separately, Bajaj Healthcare Limited has fixed the record date for its final dividend for FY 2024-25.

Alongside these, the provided note also mentions that Bajaj Auto plans to buy back 46.94 lakh shares through the tender route, where eligible shareholders can tender shares back to the company at a fixed price. No further dates, price, or buyback size for Bajaj Auto are stated in the provided material.

Bajaj Consumer Care buyback: tender offer route

Bajaj Consumer Care’s buyback is structured as a tender offer, which allows eligible shareholders to participate by tendering shares during a defined window. The company’s Letter of Offer states that it is being sent to registered equity shareholders as on the record date, in line with the SEBI (Buy-Back of Securities) Regulations, 2018, as amended.

The buyback offer is for up to 64,34,482 fully paid-up equity shares (64.34 lakh shares) at a price of ₹290 per share, payable in cash. The buyback size mentioned is 4.69% (as stated in the deal summary). The offer is open on a proportionate basis for shareholders on the record date.

Key dates investors should note

The buyback record date is stated as Friday, September 5, 2025. The buyback opens on Thursday, September 11, 2025 and closes on Wednesday, September 17, 2025. The board meeting approving the proposal is dated July 24, 2025, and the public announcement date is also July 24, 2025.

The text also references a voting notice for buyback approval, stating that the last date of voting is August 29 and the result is expected by August 31. These voting dates are included in the provided material, but the buyback timetable in the Letter of Offer already specifies the record date as September 5, 2025.

Offer size and consideration

As per the provided deal table, the buyback offer amount is ₹186.60 crore. The buyback price is ₹290 per equity share and the face value is ₹1.

In the Letter of Offer extract, the buyback offer size is also described as representing 23.70% and 24.88% of the aggregate of the company’s fully paid-up equity capital and free reserves as per audited standalone and consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025, respectively. It also states that the buyback size is within the statutory limit of 25%.

Entitlement ratios disclosed for categories

The Letter of Offer extract includes category-wise entitlement ratios. For the reserved category for small shareholders, the ratio is stated as 5 equity shares for every 63 shares held on the record date. For the general category (all other shareholders), it is 19 equity shares for every 239 shares held on the record date.

These ratios help investors understand the proportionate entitlement framework, although actual acceptance can vary based on the final response in each category.

Stock price reference and implied premium

The provided text includes references to the stock trading around ₹242 in one segment and ₹245.07 in another segment, while the buyback price is ₹290 per share. These values are presented as context in the supplied material to indicate that the buyback price is above the then-current market price.

The note also describes this as an approximately 18% premium based on the ₹245.07 reference. This premium statement is included in the supplied text and is not a forward estimate.

Earlier buyback reference (July 2024 record date)

The material also contains a separate reference to a Bajaj Consumer Care buyback with a record date of 2nd July, 2024. In that reference, the buyback offer amount is stated as ₹166.49 crore, the number of shares as 57.41 lakh, and the buyback price as ₹290 per share, with the source cited as BSE and Economic Times.

This appears as a historical reference in the provided content and is separate from the September 2025 tender offer timeline described above.

Bajaj Healthcare final dividend: record date fixed

Bajaj Healthcare Limited has fixed September 19, 2025 as the record date for payment of the final dividend of ₹1.00 per equity share (20%) for FY 2024-25. The provided note repeats that the record date for the purpose of dividend is 19-Sep-2025.

The update is timestamped as “11-Sep-25 19:20 Hrs IST” in the provided material.

Summary table of key disclosed details

What shareholders typically need to do (process-level clarity)

For a tender offer buyback, eligibility is linked to holding shares as of the record date. The Letter of Offer notes that eligible shareholders as on the record date are the ones to whom the offer documents and tender form are sent, and who may participate under SEBI buyback regulations.

Investors generally watch the record date, the opening and closing dates for tendering, and the entitlement ratios for their category, as these determine participation mechanics. The supplied material does not include the detailed step-by-step broker process, so this article limits itself to the dates, terms, and ratios explicitly provided.

Conclusion

Bajaj Consumer Care’s September 2025 tender buyback has a stated record date of September 5, 2025, with the offer window running from September 11 to September 17 at ₹290 per share for up to 64.34 lakh shares. Separately, Bajaj Healthcare has set September 19, 2025 as the record date for its final dividend of ₹1 per share for FY 2024-25. Investors tracking these actions will typically focus next on the buyback offer period and the dividend eligibility cut-off based on the disclosed record dates.
