Kainaz Khurshed Daruvala, who is part of the promoter group of Sterling and Wilson Renewable Energy Limited, has filed for a settlement with market regulator SEBI for the delay in disclosing the acquisition of shares from her husband.

Daruvala had acquired 1,30,00,000 equity shares, equal to an 8.11 per cent stake in Sterling and Wilson Renewable Energy Limited (formerly known as Sterling and Wilson Solar Limited), from her husband, Khurshed Yazdi Daruvala, as a gift on December 23, 2020, through an off-market transfer. This reduced Khurshed’s stake to 17.63 per cent from 25.74 per cent.
