Quess Corp shares experienced a significant surge of nearly 12% following the company’s announcement of a demerger into three separate entities.

The Board of Directors of Quess Corp has approved a composite scheme of arrangement for the demerger, resulting in the formation of three independent entities – Quess Corp: Workforce Management (Remaining Company), Digitide Solutions Ltd: BPM solutions, Insurtech, and HRO business, and Bluspring Enterprises Ltd: Facility Management, Industrial Services, and Investments.

Upon the effectiveness of the scheme, shareholders will receive one additional share for each of the new companies, for every share held in Quess Corp Ltd. This demerger process is expected to take between 12-15 months to achieve regulatory clearances.
