The Satin Creditcare Network in an attempt to raise Rs. 120 crore has decided to release a rights issue. The issue price per share has been fixed at Rs. 60 and the rights issue is set to close on 26th August 2020. Here’s a little more about this.

Understanding what a Rights Entitlement is
A company may resort to various means of raising capital while pursuing expansion goals, attempting to achieve a debt-free status or building new assets. One such means is a rights offer. This involves entitling existing shareholders to a specific number of rights as per the ratio set by the company.

Thus, rights entitlement offers existing shareholders the chance to buy more shares in the company at a discounted price over a specific period of time.

In the case of Satin Creditcare Network Rights Issue, the proportion issued is 48:125. This means if you own 125 shares of SATIN, you’re entitled to 48 of its shares in this rights entitlement.

Important dates to keep in mind for the rights issue
