Rane Holdings increases shareholding in SasMos to 45.24 pc

Seeking to step up its presence in aerospace and defence sector, Rane Holdings has increased its shareholding in interconnection system and wiring maker SasMos HET Technologies to 45.24 per cent.
In September 2011, the Chennai-based Rane Group acquired 26 per cent stake in share capital of SasMos, making its foray in the aerospace and defence sector.
"The current further acquisition of 19.24 per cent in SasMos is from Lumipol International, a Netherlands-based company," Rane Holdings said in a BSE filing.
The company believed this to be a significant step towards enhancing its presence in defence and aerospace sector, it said.

Shares of Rane Holdings Ltd ended at Rs 590 apiece, up by 1.20 per cent over previous close in BSE.
