Norges Bank supports ZEEL's preferential issue of convertible warrants

One of the largest shareholders of Zee Entertainment Enterprises (ZEEL), Norges Bank Investment Management, which manages the Norwegian Government Pension Fund Global, stated on its website on Monday that it will vote in favour of the company's issuance of fully convertible warrants to the promoter group entities on a preferential basis.
As per the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), the Government Pension Fund Global holds a 3.86 per cent stake as of the quarter ending 31 March. This announcement comes a few days before ZEEL's Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM), which will be held on 10 July.
This follows ZEEL's earlier statement in its stock exchange filing that it intends to raise over ₹2,237 crore from the preferential issue of convertible warrants. In June, ZEEL's board of directors approved the issuance of 169,503,400 fully convertible warrants at ₹132 per warrant to the promoter group entities on a preferential basis. These warrants are proposed to be allotted to Altilis Technologies and Sunbright Mauritius Investments, which are linked to the promoter group entities.
Through this issue, the promoters, Subhash Chandra and his family, are expected to raise their shareholding in ZEEL to 18.39 per cent from the current 3.99 per cent within 18 months.
Additionally, Glass Lewis & Co., a global independent research and proxy advisory services firm, recommended in a report that shareholders vote in favour of the resolution regarding the rise in promoters' shareholding.
'In this case, assuming full conversion of warrants into equity shares of the company (ZEEL), we note that the dilution to current shareholders will be capped at approximately 15 per cent of the share capital, which we consider reasonable. We recommend that shareholders vote FOR this proposal,' the report stated.

Trump 'cold-called' Norwegian minister to ask about Nobel Peace Prize; they spoke about tariff

Donald Trump spoke to Norwegian minister about tariff and Nobel Prize, reports claimed. President Donald Trump called Norway's finance minister Jens Stoltenberg last month to discuss trade tariffs, POLITICO reported, citing Norwegian newspaper Dagens Næringsliv and called it a "cold call" to ask about his bid to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Several countries, including Israel, Pakistan and Cambodia, have already nominated Trump for brokering peace as Trump claimed he facilitated peace between many countries since his inauguration in January. Trump also hosted Armenia and Azerbaijan as the two countries ended their hostilities. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) in March said he would nominate Trump for the award, and Rep. Buddy Carter (R-Ga.) nominated him in June, citing his role in brokering a ceasefire agreement between Iran and Israel. Trump's August 15 meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin is another step towards his attempts to broker peace. While critics are questioning why Putin is being welcomed to Alaska, Trump is hopeful to coerce Putin into an agreement to stop the Ukraine war, as he emphasized that he would understand in the first few minutes of the negotiation talk where it's headed. Trump said a second meeting may follow, where the peace deal could be worked out after the stage is set at the Alaska summit. 'It is true that President Trump called me a few days before his conversation with Prime Minister Støre. Several of the president's staff members also participated in the conversation, including Treasury Secretary Bessent and Trade Representative Greer,' Stoltenberg, the former NATO secretary-general, told POLITICO in a comment. 'We discussed tariffs, economic cooperation, and it served as preparation for his call with Prime Minister Støre. I will not go into further detail about the content of the conversation,' he added. The MAGA has been aiming for a Nobel for Trump and if he gets, he would become the 5th US president to receive the prize, following Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Jimmy Carter and Trump's longtime rival Barack Obama. Trump laid his heart bare on how much he wants to win the Nobel Peace Prize but he believed that they won't give it to him. 'It's too bad. I deserve it, but they will never give it to me," he said. The award is given annually in December by the Norwegian Nobel Committee to someone who has worked to establish peace between nations.

Trump discussed Nobel Peace Prize and tariffs in call with Norway's finance minister: Report

Several countries including Israel, Pakistan and Cambodia have nominated Trump for brokering peace agreements or ceasefires, and he has said he deserves the Norwegian-bestowed accolade that four White House predecessors received. This is an AI generated image for representational purpose. US President Donald Trump called Norway's Finance Minister Jens Stoltenberg unexpectedly last month, raising both trade tariffs and his ambition to secure the Nobel Peace Prize. The conversation, first reported by Norwegian daily Dagens Næringsliv on Thursday, was later confirmed to POLITICO by a government official in Oslo. According to the paper, it was not the first occasion on which Trump had brought up the prize in talks with Stoltenberg. Trump, who has been nominated by countries including Israel, Pakistan and Cambodia for mediating peace deals or ceasefires, has earlier said he deserves the Norwegian-awarded honour, which has gone to four former US presidents. 'Out of the blue, while Finance Minister Jens Stoltenberg was walking down the street in Oslo, Donald Trump called,' Dagens Naeringsliv reported, citing unnamed sources. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'He wanted the Nobel Prize – and to discuss tariffs.' With hundreds of candidates nominated each year, laureates are chosen by the Norwegian Nobel Committee, whose five members are appointed by Norway's parliament according to the will of Swedish 19th century industrialist Alfred Nobel. The announcement comes in October in Oslo. The Norwegian newspaper said it was not the first time Trump had brought up the prize in conversation with Stoltenberg, a former secretary general of the NATO military alliance. It quoted Stoltenberg as saying the call was to discuss trade tariffs and economic cooperation ahead of Trump's call with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Stoere. Asked if Trump made the Nobel prize an issue, Stoltenberg said: 'I will not go further into the content of the conversation.' Several White House officials, including US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer were on the call, Stoltenberg said. The White House on July 31 announced a 15% tariff on imports from Norway, the same as the European Union. Stoltenberg said on Wednesday that Norway and the United States were still in talks regarding the tariffs. With inputs from agencies
