What if I invest in JSFB?

Set a growth rate and see what a monthly SIP would add up to. Your assumption, our arithmetic.

You would put in
₹12.00 lakh
120 instalments
At 10% a year, it would become
₹20.15 lakh

The starting rate is a round number, not a view on this company — this is your assumption, and the figure above is arithmetic on it. Returns are not steady year to year, and a real holding would not grow in a straight line. We do not publish price targets or predict returns.

What shareholders were asked to approve

A company cannot decide everything on its own. Things like a top executive’s pay, issuing new shares, or re-appointing a director have to be put to the people who own the company, and they vote — one vote per share. So whoever owns the most shares has the most say.

Every vote count above is taken from the result the company filed with the stock exchange, certified by an independent counter. To work out what would have happened without the promoters, we simply remove their votes and re-apply the same legal bar the proposal had to clear. Nothing here is an estimate or an opinion.

Who controls this company, and what it pays them

Most Indian companies are controlled by a family or group — the promoters. The exchange requires them to be listed by name, including members who own no shares at all, and requires the company to disclose any business it does with them.

The promoter group — 3 named members
owning 16.9% between them · as of 2026-09-30
JANA HOLDINGS LIMITED16.87%
JANA CAPITAL LIMITEDno shares

Names and holdings from the company’s shareholding pattern filed with the exchange; transactions from the related-party note in its annual report. Every figure is as filed — these are legal, disclosed dealings, and what to make of them is your call.

Money it raised, and what it did with it

When a company raises money from investors, it has to say up front what the money is for. The rules then make it report, every three months until the money is gone, how much of each of those things it has actually paid for — so a promise made while asking for the money can be checked afterwards.

₹103 cr raised in Jun 2026 by selling shares to selected investors

As of Jun 2026, the company says it has spent 100% of what it set aside.

Objects of the Preferential Issue The capital infusion will be utilized by the Bank for augmentation of its Tier-1 capital. The Bank is raising funds to support its business objectives, including, without limitation, for augmenting Tier-1 capital, meeting working capital and general corporate requirements, pursuing organic and inorganic growth opportunities, undertaking acquisitions, strategic investments, joint ventures or partnerships, refinancing existing obligations, strengthening its balance sheet, and for any other purposes that the Board may, in its discretion, determine to be in the best interests of the Bank, subject to applicable laws. 25% (twenty-five) of the proceeds of the Preferential Issue will be received by the Bank at the time of the Preferential Issue of the Warrants. The remaining proceeds shall be received by the Bank once the Warrants are exercised by the Proposed Allottees, in one or more tranches, which shall not be later than 18 (eighteen) months from the date of allotment of Warrants in terms of Chapter V of the SEBI ICDR Regulations and as estimated by our management, the entire proceeds received from the Preferential Issue would be utilized, subject to compliance with applicable laws, for the above mentioned Objects, in phases, as per the Bank’s business requirements and availability of issue proceeds. If the proceeds are not utilised (in full or in part) for the Objects stated above, the remaining proceeds shall be utilised in such manner as may be determined by the Board in accordance with applicable laws. Interim Use of Proceeds: The Bank, in accordance with the policies formulated by our Board from time to time, will have flexibility to deploy the net proceeds of the Preferential Issue. Pending complete utilization for the Objects described above, the Bank intends to, inter alia, invest the net proceeds as permitted under applicable laws.

Every figure above is taken from the statement the company files with the stock exchange each quarter, for as long as money it has raised remains unspent. The only thing we work out is how much of each stated purpose has been paid for — one number divided by another from the same filing. Whether a plan that changed was a good change is not something a filing can tell you. See the filing
