UPL to Create Unified Global Crop Protection Platform via Major Restructuring

The latest announcement is out from UPL Limited ( (IN:UPL) ).

UPL Limited’s board has approved a composite scheme of arrangement to integrate its India-specific and international crop protection businesses into a single global platform, UPL Global Sustainable Agri Solutions Limited (UPL 2). The restructuring involves merging UPL Sustainable Agri Solutions into UPL Limited, demerging the India crop protection business into UPL 2, and amalgamating Cayman-based UPL Crop Protection Holdings into UPL 2.

Following implementation, the UPL group will comprise two listed entities: UPL Limited, which will remain a diversified agro and specialty chemicals platform, and UPL 2, which will become a dedicated, listed crop protection company on Indian exchanges. The Upswing Trust will emerge as a significant public shareholder with board nomination rights in UPL 2, while promoter-group shareholders have agreed to an 18-month lock-in, underscoring long-term commitment and signaling stability to investors and other stakeholders.
