Devyani International Limited (DIL), a prominent player in the food and beverage sector, is set to deepen its investment in Sky Gate Hospitality Private Limited. In a move aligned with its expansion strategy, the company has signed multiple agreements to acquire an additional equity stake in Sky Gate, taking its total holding to approximately 86.13% on a fully diluted basis.
DIL previously acquired 80.72% equity in Sky Gate, which owns popular brands like ‘Biryani By Kilo’, ‘Goila Butter Chicken’, and ‘The Bhojan’. On 23rd June 2025, the company announced that it has executed a Share Subscription Agreement and Shareholders Agreement with Sky Gate and its promoters, along with a Share Purchase Agreement to acquire more shares in one or more tranches. The proposed acquisition will be completed by 31st July 2025.
The acquisition will be carried out through a cash consideration of up to ₹106.25 crore, which includes subscription to fresh equity shares and share purchase from promoters. The deal is a related party transaction since Sky Gate is already a subsidiary, though it is stated to be conducted at arm’s length. The additional funds will be used to support Sky Gate’s subsidiaries, operational needs, and other general corporate purposes.
