Pishgam Roshd Yekom venture fund (صندوق جسورانه رشد یکم پیشگام, Codal symbol پیشگام) holds 3.43 percent of Basalam, 25,504,621 shares, at a cost of 197,500,000,000 rial (19.75 billion toman), no impairment recorded. The fund's project line for Basalam shows an initial budget of 240 billion rial, amended to 197.5 billion, fully drawn, with the project marked as expanding its market and forecast to complete in 2025-26.

Supersedes the 2.17 percent and 24 billion toman figures reported in the trade press in 2023: the budget was cut to 197.5 billion rial and the percentage was restated to 3.43 after a co-investor corrected its investment amount (fund footnote 2; the comparative at 21 June 2025 showed 25,524,049 shares at the same 3.43 percent). 25,504,621 shares at 3.43 percent implies about 743.6 million shares in issue, which matches the pre-March-2025 registered capital of 743,650,000,000 rial at 1,000 rial a share, so the count is the old share register. Cost is historical cost, not a valuation.

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.
