Alfa Laval raises stake in Alfa Laval India Ltd and plans to apply for delisting
Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling – will buy just over 50 percent of the outstanding minority shares in its subsidiary Alfa Laval India Ltd, and plans to apply for a delisting of the shares from the Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange of India.
The reverse book-building process was closed on February 23rd and the result is that Alfa Laval will acquire 1.03 million shares for INR 4,000 apiece to reach an ownership of 94.5 percent.

Alfa Laval wins SEK 70 million energy-efficiency order in Russia
Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling – has won an order for compact heat exchangers from a refinery in Russia. The order, worth approximately SEK 70 million, was booked late December 2011. Delivery is scheduled for 2012.
Alfa Laval’s compact heat exchangers will be used in the refinery distillation process where crude oil is preheated in different steps. They will reuse heat from the process for preheating the crude oil, resulting in a very energy-efficient solution.
”This is another example of our compact heat exchangers enabling big energy savings compared with the traditional shell-and-tube technology they are replacing”, says Lars Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group.
Alfa Laval’s compact heat exchangers can recover up to 95 percent of the heat that otherwise would be wasted, representing an efficiency increase of slightly more than 40 percent compared with the competing shell-and-tube technology.

Alfa Laval proposes to buy all outstanding shares in Alfa Laval India Ltd and seek delisting
Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling – aims to obtain full ownership of its subsidiary Alfa Laval India Ltd and seek delisting of the shares from the Bombay Stock Exchange Limited and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited.
The proposal comes on the back of regulatory changes in India which requires Alfa Laval India Ltd to have a minimum public float of 25 percent, or seek delisting. At present, Alfa Laval holds 88.8 percent of the share capital of Alfa Laval India, meaning the public float is 11.2 percent. The objective is to achieve full ownership of the subsidiary, which will provide Alfa Laval with increased operational flexibility to support the business and meet the customers’ needs.
Alfa Laval has requested that the Board of Directors of Alfa Laval India Ltd. take all actions required under the delisting regulations, including convening a meeting of the shareholders to consider the delisting proposal.
The delisting process is expected to take approximately three months.
