How Many Shares Tendered Will Get Repurchased?
The number of shares that the company will repurchase depends on the acceptance ratio.
According to Securities and Exchange Board of India rules, 15% of the total tender offer is reserved for the small shareholder category — an investor with an investment of not more than Rs 2 lakh in the company as of the record date. The small shareholder category holding stands at 59% or 5.96 crore shares.
