How do I buy Sterlite Power Transmission unlisted shares here?

Raise an enquiry on any company with the quantity you want. Our desk sources the shares and comes back with a firm price and allocation. You accept the allocation, transfer the funds to the desk's published bank account, and once we verify payment the shares are transferred into your demat.

Who am I actually transacting with?

You transact with the desk, not with an anonymous counterparty. When you buy, you buy from the desk; when you sell, you sell to the desk. Shares always route through the desk's own demat account, so there's one accountable party for the whole trade.

How do I pay, and is there a payment gateway?

Payment is by direct bank transfer to Prospire Network Private Limited's published account (CIN U82300UP2025PTC233622), shown to you in-app at the payment step. There is no card gateway and no escrow. Never pay to a personal account or to any account shared over phone, WhatsApp or email — even if the person claims to be from our team.

How long does settlement take?

After you accept an allocation, you have a short window to pay (typically 2 days). Once payment is verified, shares are usually credited to your demat within 2–3 business days, subject to depository timelines and any company-level restrictions. Timeframes are typical, not guaranteed.

There are no separate platform fee lines and no GST on the transfer — the desk's margin is built into the buy/sell price you're quoted. The only statutory add-on on a purchase is stamp duty on the consideration, shown transparently in your cost breakdown.

Is there a minimum ticket size for Sterlite Power Transmission?

Minimums vary by company and depend on the lot the desk can source. Raise an enquiry and the desk will confirm the available quantity and the minimum for that name.

What KYC do I need, and do I need a demat account?

You'll share your demat details when you enquire so we can settle directly. Full KYC — PAN and a client-master / demat statement — is required before the transfer step, when shares actually change hands. Yes, you need an active demat account to hold unlisted shares.

Are there lock-ins on unlisted or pre-IPO shares?

Some shares carry statutory or company-imposed lock-ins — for example, a post-listing lock-in on pre-IPO stock — and transfers can be subject to the company's articles or approvals. Where a lock-in applies, we'll flag it before you commit.

How do I sell Sterlite Power Transmission shares I already hold?

Raise a sell enquiry with the company, quantity and your target price. The desk confirms a buying price, you transfer your shares into the desk's demat, and once the credit is verified we pay you out by bank transfer to your registered account. The desk never pays out before your shares are received.

Unlisted shares are illiquid, may be hard or impossible to sell, and are not covered by exchange settlement guarantees or investor-protection funds. Pricing is indicative, not live. Read the full Risk Disclosure before you enquire, and invest only what you can afford to lock away.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Sterlite Power Transmission

Sterlite Power Transmission Limited was a leading integrated power transmission company in India, encompassing both cable and conductor manufacturing and power transmission infrastructure development. Incorporated on May 5, 2015 in Pune under CIN U74120PN2015PLC156643, the company was part of the Sterlite Power group promoted by Pravin Agarwal, a veteran in India's power and cables industry. The company operated at the intersection of manufacturing and infrastructure — producing power conductors, EHV cables, and related equipment while also developing, owning, and operating interstate power transmission projects. Under the Sterlite Power Transmission brand, the group built a portfolio spanning over 13,700 circuit kilometres of transmission lines and 24,800 MVA of transformation capacity across India and Brazil. The group also created IndiGrid (India's first power sector Infrastructure Investment Trust, or InvIT) in 2017, demonstrating its financial innovation capabilities. In a significant corporate restructuring in 2024, stakeholders approved the demerger of the combined entity into two separate companies: the cables and conductors manufacturing business was retained under the renamed entity Sterlite Electric Limited, while the power transmission infrastructure development business was carved out into Sterlite Grid 5 Limited. This separation allows each business to pursue distinct capital structures and growth strategies — the manufacturing business benefits from operational continuity as Sterlite Electric, while the infrastructure business in Sterlite Grid 5 can leverage the IndiGrid InvIT for asset monetisation. The brand "Sterlite Power Transmission" remains associated with the group's overall power transmission activities, particularly its international operations and the broader Sterlite Power ecosystem. The company has secured significant project financing from institutions including Power Finance Corporation (PFC), with a ₹1,373 crore financial closure for the Neemrana II Kotputli transmission project in May 2024. India's power transmission sector represents one of the country's most critical infrastructure needs, with the government planning to invest over ₹3.2 lakh crore in transmission infrastructure through FY2032 to support the 500 GW renewable energy target.
