Dhammika ups Hayleys stake to 21%
Investor and entrepreneur-turned Chairman of Board of Investment
official Dhammika Perera on Monday increased his stake in
export-manufacturing heavy diversified conglomerate Hayleys
to 21.3%.
He crossed the associate-company status 20% stake when he
acquired 2 million shares at Rs. 150 each. Yesterday too he
picked up around 200,000 shares. Among recent sellers were
NSB, a former Director and an Italian joint venture partner
of Hayleys while last week DIMO also sold its stake.
Already
a member of the Board of Hayleys on invitation after he acquired
a near 15% stake, Dhammika, sources said, would look for more
shares if available at the right price.
The
first ever Board meeting of Hayleys with Dhammika is slated
for August 7.
