PB Fintech cofounders Yashish Dahiya and Alok Bansal sold shares worth ₹665.4 crore through multiple block deals this week, according to NSE data reported by inc42.com. Dahiya sold 26 lakh shares for ₹455.3 crore, while Bansal offloaded 12 lakh shares for ₹210.1 crore, both at ₹1,751 per share.
The share sales were executed via block deals at a 2.8% premium to the stock’s previous closing price on the BSE. Major institutional buyers included Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Societe Generale, Kotak Securities, Tata Mutual Fund, and BNP Paribas. Financial services firm St. James’s Place purchased shares worth ₹81.9 crore, while Viridian Asia Opportunities Master Fund and Societe Generale acquired shares valued at ₹76 crore and ₹57.5 crore, respectively.
This transaction follows a similar share sale by the cofounders in June 2025, when they sold shares worth ₹920 crore. Earlier this month, Tencent exited its entire 1.05% stake in PB Fintech through a block deal valued at ₹805.4 crore. The cofounders’ stake reduction coincides with a recent 15.5% rise in PB Fintech’s stock price over three months, despite a 6% year-to-date decline, signaling profit booking amid market fluctuations.
As of March 2026, Dahiya retains a 3.86% stake with 1.8 crore shares, and Bansal holds 1.2% with 53.8 lakh shares. The share sales reflect ongoing portfolio rebalancing by the founders and investors, with future market activity likely influenced by institutional interest and the company’s performance on the BSE, inc42.com reported.
