Rights Issue - November 2024
[Nov-24] The company offers its shareholders the right to purchase its shares at a discount on a predetermined date known as the record date in a rights entitlement.
Shareholders are granted Rights Entitlements (RE) by temporarily crediting their Demat accounts with RE, giving them the right to participate in a Rights Issue. Please note that these are Rights Entitlement and not Rights shares. To get the shares, you should apply at their respective Registrar & Transfer Agent (RTA) and convert RE into shares. You should keep in mind that RE is temporary, and until you apply and pay the requisite amount, rights shares won’t be credited to your Demat account.
