Greenzo Energy India works in the clean-energy sector, mainly in green hydrogen, electrolyzers and renewable energy projects. While planning to grow its business, the company is now looking to raise more money to support its expansion. Greenzo plans to raise around Rs.130 Cr through a preferential issue. Shareholders will consider the proposal at the company’s Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) on 28 September 2026. So, why is Greenzo raising this money, and what does the proposed issue involve? Let's discuss in detail.
Greenzo Energy to Raise Rs.130 Cr
Greenzo Energy India plans to raise around Rs.130 Cr through a preferential issue of 17,76,611 Compulsorily Convertible Cumulative Preference Shares (CCPS). The company will offer these shares to 17 identified investors.

Greenzo Energy plans to raise Rs.129,99,99,568 through this issue, which is around Rs.130 Cr.
Why Is Greenzo Raising the Money?
The company says it will use the additional funds for business growth and expansion, along with marketing and general corporate purposes. Simply means, Greenzo wants to bring in fresh money to support its next phase of business. More importantly, investors could likely observe how the company uses this capital and whether it eventually helps to grow the business.
What constitutes a CCPS?
CCPS stands for Compulsorily Convertible Cumulative Preference Shares. Simply means they are preference shares which are meant to convert into equity shares under the terms of the issue. The proposed CCPS also grants investors certain rights and protections, including:
0.01% dividend
Voting rights on an as-converted basis
Specified affirmative voting rights
Liquidation preference
Certain rights in future issuances
Rights relating to the nomination of a Director and an Observer, subject to the stated terms
These terms are important because the investors coming into the issue will not simply have the same position as ordinary shareholders from day one. They receive specific rights under the CCPS structure.
What Is the Liquidation Preference?
One important feature of the proposed CCPS is the liquidation preference. When Greenzo is liquidated, CCPS will be paid before the other equity shareholders. They will receive the following:
-2 times of their investment with all due dividends OR
-Amount after converting CCPS into equity
Whichever is higher.
What Will Happen to Promoter Holding?
The company's shareholding structure will change with the proposed issue. The promoter holding is expected to move from around 79% to around 69%. At the same time, non-promoter holding is expected to increase to around 31% after the proposed issue. In other words, promoter ownership will reduce by around 10 % points following the proposed transaction.
The EGM notice also states that promoters, directors, and key managerial personnel are not subscribing to the proposed issue. This change in promoter holding would not automatically be viewed as positive or negative. The bigger question for investors could be whether the Rs.130 Cr of fresh capital can generate enough business growth to justify the change in ownership structure.
Greenzo Plans to Increase Its Authorized Share Capital
Greenzo is also seeking permission to increase its authorized share capital from Rs. 16 Cr to Rs. 18 Cr along with the fundraising. This capital structure should be kept separate from the Rs. 130 cr fundraising since it is linked to the company’s proposed issue.
What This Means for Investors?
The proposed fundraising by Greenzo Energy India of Rs. 130 Cr is a significant development in its capital structure. The company intends to offer 17,76,611 CCPS, with the issue price stated at Rs. 731.73 per CCPS. For investors, the key points are the fresh capital coming into the company, the change in promoter holding from around 79% to 69%, the rights attached to the CCPS, and the proposed use of funds for business growth and expansion. Yet the amount raised alone would not show whether the company is becoming more profitable or more valuable. The true measure will be how well Greenzo uses the Rs. 130 Cr and whether that capital results in sustainable business growth and improved financial performance. In August 26 Greenzo energy is trading at Rs 766 per share, which is an almost 14% jump in last one year.
