Medial

Docon Technologies Pvt Ltd, a promoter entity of Thyrocare Technologies, has sold 53.33 lakh equity shares representing around 10% of the company’s total paid-up capital through open market transactions on October 24, 2025. The sale was valued at Rs 667.7 crore at an average price of Rs 1,252 per share, according to a stock exchange filing. Following the transaction, Docon’s shareholding in Thyrocare has come down from 71% to 61% and continues to remain a promoter of the diagnostics chain with 3.2 crore shares. The block sale saw strong participation from domestic mutual funds. Among the key buyers were ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund, which purchased 17.49 lakh shares worth Rs 218.9 crore, and Aditya Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund, which picked up 10.33 lakh shares for Rs 129.3 crore. Other prominent investors included HSBC Mutual Fund Midcap Fund (6.66 lakh shares for Rs 83.4 crore), HDFC Mutual Fund (4.44 lakh shares for Rs 55.5 crore), and Eastspring Investments India Consumer Equity Open Limited (3.19 lakh shares for Rs 40 crore). The stake sale comes on the back of leadership transition within the PharmEasy-Thyrocare group. In August 2025, PharmEasy’s co-founder and CEO Siddharth Shah stepped down from his executive role to become the company’s Vice Chairman, while Thyrocare’s chief Rahul Guha was elevated as the new MD and CEO of API Holdings, the parent entity of PharmEasy and Thyrocare. Guha continues to lead Thyrocare alongside his expanded responsibilities at API. Thyrocare recently announced its financial numbers for the second quarter of the ongoing fiscal year FY26, posting a strong performance in the quarter. The company’s revenue from operations grew 22% year-on-year (YoY) to Rs 216.5 crore in Q2 FY26 from Rs 177.36 crore in Q2 FY25. Thyrocare’s profit jumped 81% YoY to Rs 47.9 crore in Q2 FY26, compared to Rs 26.4 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. For the first half of FY26, the company recorded a net profit that grew 71% to Rs 86.1 crore from Rs 50.4 crore in H1 FY25.
