Multibagger stock: Shanti Educational Initiatives Ltd (SEIL) shares will be in focus of the stock market investors on Monday, 19 January 2026, after the company issued a “letter of comfort” to ICICI Bank for a nearly ₹5 crore loan undertaken by a subsidiary, according to an exchange filing.
“The Letter of Comfort has been issued to the ICICI Bank Limited, in favour of Uniformverse Private Limited, Subsidiary Company,” SEIL informed the stock exchanges through its filing.
A letter of comfort is also considered to be a level of assurance that an entity provides against any obligation which is supposed to be met at a future date.
In the BSE filing, SEIL informed ICICI Bank that the company's subsidiary, named Uniformverse Private Limited, which has undertaken a ₹4.99 crore or nearly ₹5 crore loan, will not dilute the beneficial ownership in the paid-up share capital of the subsidiary without prior consent in case of non-fulfilment of the loan commitment.
However, the company also disclosed that the letter sent to ICICI Bank is not a “guarantee” and will not be termed the same unless a “separate deed of guarantee” has been made for the repayment.
“The aforesaid letter of comfort is given by way of a comfort and is not a guarantee nor shall be construed to be a guarantee unless any separate Deed of Guarantee is executed by the company,” said SEIL.
