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.

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.
