Today, shares of Salasar Techno Engineering Limited (STEL) hit a 5 per cent upper circuit to an intraday high of Rs 22.50 per share from its previous closing of Rs 21.45 per share. The shares of the company saw heavy buying recently with a spurt in volume by more than 2 times and have been hitting back-to-back upper circuits.

Salasar Techno Engineering Limited (STEL) recently completed the acquisition of EMC Limited, which was in liquidation. This means STEL takes over EMC in its current state and assumes all risks. The acquisition was finalized through an e-auction for a total price of Rs 178 crore, with STEL recently paying the remaining Rs 168 crore. This move is expected to strengthen STEL's market position in the engineering and infrastructure sector. In a separate development, STEL's Board of Directors approved the conversion of warrants held by Coeus Global Opportunities Fund into equity shares. This conversion brings an investment of Rs 35.1 crore to STEL and increases Coeus' ownership stake in the company to 1.88 per cent.

Earlier to this, the company secured two major contracts. In a joint venture with Rail Vikas Nigam Ltd (RVNL) where STEL holds a 49 per cent stake, they won a Rs 173.99 crore project from Madhya Pradesh Power Transmission Company Limited (MPPTCL). Additionally, STEL secured a significant Rs 1,033.78 crore contract from Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation Limited (TANGEDCO).
