Promoters to hike Religare Enterprises stake by 13%

25 Aug 2010 Evaluate
Religare Enterprises promoters Malvinder and Shivinder Singh are increasing their holding in the financial services company by 13% to a little over 70% that will trigger an open offer to acquire more shares from the public. The promoters will raise their holding through multiple transactions including fresh issue of shares and purchase of shares from existing investors in the stock market. On Tuesday, Religare Enterprises board approved a preferential allotment of shares to RHC Finance, a privately-held firm of the promoters. The promoters will pump in Rs 250 crore at Rs 457 a share to increase stake by 4%. The board also agreed to issue warrants convertible into equity shares at the same price that will mean promoters bringing in an additional Rs 250 crore.The promoters separately also plan to spend another `357 crore on open market purchase to buy another 5.58% stake.With this, the promoters will have to make an offer to buy another 20% from public, which could potentially take their total holding to as much as 90%. Promoters may need to pay up to Rs 1,250 crore to buy this additional stake if all the shareholders agree to tender their shares.crackcrack
