KUALA LUMPUR (Mar 13): Tan Sri Halim Saad, the largest shareholder of Sumatec Resources Bhd , has increased his stake in the oil and gas company after buying an additional 40 million shares at 20.5 sen apiece or for RM8.2 million.

In a filing with Bursa Malaysia today, Sumatec (fundamental:2.4;valuation: 0.3) revealed that Halim had acquired the shares via an off market transaction on March 10, bringing the total shares he owns in Sumatec to 807.04 million shares or a 23.17% stake.
