Jai Corp Buyback 2024 vs Nucleus Software Buyback 2024

The Buy-Back is being undertaken, inter-alia, for the following reasons:

1. The buyback will help the company to distribute surplus cash to its shareholders holding equity shares broadly in proportion to their shareholding, thereby, enhancing the overall return to shareholders.
2. The buyback is expected to improve return on equity through the distribution of cash and improve earnings per share by reducing the equity base; thereby increasing the long-term shareholder's value.
3. 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.
4. 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 many public shareholders, who would be classified as small shareholders.
   The buyback would help in improving financial ratios like earnings per share and return on equity, by reducing the equity base of the company.
