Is rights issue primary or secondary?

Yes, a rights issue is a primary offering. In this process, a company issues new shares to its existing shareholders, giving them the right to purchase additional shares in proportion to their current holdings. Since these shares are newly issued and the company raises fresh capital through the offering, it is classified as a primary market transaction.
