The Buy Back is being proposed by the Company to fulfill the following objectives:
- The Buyback will help the company to return surplus cash to its shareholders holding Equity Shares.
- The Buyback is generally expected to improve return on equity through the distribution of cash and improve earnings per share by a reduction in the equity base, thereby leading to a long-term increase in shareholders value.
- The Buyback gives an option to the shareholders holding Equity Shares of the company, either to sell their Equity Shares and receive cash or not to sell their Equity Shares and get a resultant increase in their percentage shareholding, post the Buyback offer, without additional investment.
- The Buyback, which is being implemented through the tender offer as prescribed under the Buyback Regulations, would involve a minimum reservation of 15% for Small Shareholders and allocation of a higher number of shares as per their entitlement or 15% of the number of shares to be bought back, reserved for the Small Shareholders. The Company believes that this reservation for Small Shareholders would benefit a large number of public shareholders, who would get classified as Small Shareholders.
