Stated gaps are part of the record: in an opaque market, knowing what is NOT publicly established is as decision-relevant as what is.

Ownership| FANAP (Pasargad Financial Group) is a major shareholder: 47% after the 2018 capital round (Factnameh fact-check, Radio Zamaneh, Wikipedia); Persian press reported FANAP reaching 65% after a third, 500B-toman round (Feb 2022, FANAP-announced, not registry-verified). Board chair Keyvan Jameh-Bozorg and vice-chair Ilia Vakili are FANAP representatives (registry-gazette-based via Factnameh/Internetabad). The company publicly disputes control, calling FANAP a minor shareholder (Nov 2024). | Wave-6 registry pull 2026-07-21: FANAP holds a legal-entity board seat (term 1404/04/28-1406/04/28); its 43.65M preferred (A) shares were converted to ordinary (B) per gazette 1405/02/16. Stake percentage is NOT visible on the registry page (shareholder detail paywalled), the 47%/65% press figures remain unverified. Registered capital rose 1.164T → 1.746T → 14.75T IRR (latest gazette 1405/04/16).

Registered capital is the share capital recorded in the official gazette. Increases are real corporate events, but they are commonly funded from retained earnings or converted receivables and are also driven by inflation and regulatory minimums. It is not a valuation, and Tehran Index does not present it as one.
