Separately, Waaree Energies announced the acquisition of 100% shareholding in Waaree Green Data Centers Private Limited (WGDCPL), formerly known as Sunsantional Energy Private Limited, along with its two wholly owned subsidiaries, Aurovault Data Centers Private Limited and Sunstar Data Centers Private Limited.
The entities are being acquired from Waaree Renewable Technologies Limited, a subsidiary of Waaree Energies. The transaction involves a cash consideration of Rs 1 lakh for 10,000 equity shares with a face value of Rs 10 each, according to the company's disclosure.
Waaree Energies said the transaction is a related-party deal conducted at arm's length and in the ordinary course of business.
