The full read

Virat Industries is putting a new name on its pivot. The board approved 'Brahm Virat Industries Corporation Limited' after the Central Registration Centre cleared it, finally giving a concrete identity to the company's shift from toothbrushes to textiles and real estate. The change needs shareholder approval, but given the promoter-led ₹100-crore preferential allotment that preceded the pivot, dissent is unlikely. For a micro-cap that swung to a ₹493.87 lakh profit last year, up from ₹90.45 lakh, the name change is a small but definitive step. It ends months of ambiguity after an earlier proposal was shelved. What's next is execution: the full read on how the new business lines actually perform.
