Introduction to Krishival Foods Limited
Krishival Foods Limited is one of India’s emerging FMCG players, focused on premium nuts, dried fruits, and ice cream. Operating under well-recognised brands such as Krishival Nuts” and “Melt N Mellow,” the company has steadily built a reputation for quality, innovation, and diversified offerings. With increasing consumer preference for healthy snacking and premium food products, Krishival Foods has been expanding its footprint in discretionary consumption while strengthening its supply chain and processing capabilities.
Listed on both the National Stock Exchange (NSE: KRISHIVAL) and BSE Limited (BSE: 544416), the company continues to keep investors informed through transparent disclosures and strategic capital-raising initiatives.
Rights Issue Successfully Completed
On January 14, 2026, Krishival Foods announced the successful completion of its Rights Issue, following approval by the Rights Issue Committee at its meeting held on January 8, 2026. The Rights Issue, which opened on December 26, 2025 and closed on January 7, 2026, was undertaken to raise up to ₹100 crore through the issuance of partly paid-up equity shares to eligible shareholders.
As part of this process, the company approved the allotment of 33,33,160 partly paid-up equity shares of face value ₹10 each on a rights basis. This move reflects solid participation from existing shareholders, underlining their confidence in the company’s direction and long-term prospects.
Key Details of the Rights Issue
The Rights Issue was offered in the ratio of 45 Rights Equity Shares for every 301 fully paid-up equity shares held as on the record date of December 17, 2025. Each rights equity share was issued at a price of ₹300 per share.
At the time of application, ₹105 per share was payable, which included a premium of ₹101.50. The balance amount is to be paid in one or more subsequent calls, as may be decided by the Board or the Rights Issue Committee, with the final payment to be completed on or before January 6, 2027. This structured payment approach provides flexibility to investors while ensuring steady capital inflow for the company.
Impact on Share Capital Structure
Following the allotment, Krishival Foods’ paid-up equity share capital reflects both its pre- and post-rights positions. Prior to the Rights Issue, the company had 22,295,141 fully paid-up equity shares. Post-allotment, an additional 3,333,160 partly paid-up equity shares have been issued, corresponding to the application money received.
Importantly, these partly paid-up equity shares have been listed and admitted to trading on both BSE Limited and the National Stock Exchange of India, ensuring liquidity and transparency for investors.
Utilisation of Funds: Building for the Future
The net proceeds from the Rights Issue are set to play a crucial role in Krishival Foods’ growth strategy. The company plans to utilise the funds primarily for part-funding capital expenditure related to setting up a processing and packaging unit for nuts in Kolhapur, Maharashtra. This investment is expected to enhance operational efficiency, improve product quality, and support higher volumes.
In addition, a portion of the funds will be used to meet working capital requirements, enabling smoother day-to-day operations as the business scales. The remaining amount will be allocated towards general corporate purposes, aligning with the objectives outlined in the Letter of Offer.
Strengthening Shareholder Confidence
Commenting on the development, the company highlighted that the successful completion of the Rights Issue reinforces shareholder confidence and strengthens Krishival Foods’ capital base. At a time when FMCG companies are navigating rising input costs and evolving consumer preferences, access to capital provides a significant strategic advantage.
The Rights Issue also reflects management’s commitment to involving existing shareholders in the company’s growth journey, rather than relying solely on external funding sources.
Looking Ahead
With a stronger balance sheet and clear plans for capacity expansion, Krishival Foods appears well-positioned to capitalise on growing demand in the premium nuts, dried fruits, and ice cream segments. The completion of this Rights Issue marks more than just a financial milestone it signals the company’s intent to scale responsibly while maintaining a focus on quality and long-term value creation.
As the FMCG landscape continues to evolve, Krishival Foods’ latest move underscores its readiness to invest in infrastructure, deepen market presence, and pursue sustainable growth, all while keeping shareholders closely aligned with its future ambitions.
