Lenskart is likely to see action after reports of a large block deal worth around $350 million surfaced in the market. The deal involves sale of about 7.02 crore shares at Rs 470 per share, implying a discount of roughly 3.6% to the previous closing price. Existing investors including Birdseye View Holding, TR Capital Mauritius, ABG Capital, and Kariba Holdings are reportedly looking to fully exit, while Alpha Wave is expected to retain part of its holding with a 90-day lock-in on the balance stake.
