Important Notes:

• Buy-back orders are collected until 12:00 PM on the offer end date. Make sure that you hold enough quantity in your Demat account before the closure of the offer end date.
• Charges for the orders placed online are flat ₹20 + GST. These charges are non-refundable irrespective of orders accepted/rejected/failed.
• Statutory charges are applicable during a Buyback transaction.
• All the funds for your accepted shares will be directly credited to your bank account and in case of excess shares, they will be credited back to your Demat account by the registrar and transfer agents (RTA).
• If your shares are pledged, you will have to unpledge the share before applying for Buyback.
• Ensure that you apply your shares during the offer window. Offers cannot be made after the window closes. The acceptance ratio will be calculated only when the offer window closes and it will be based on the number of shares applied along with the number of retail investors participating in the buy-back.
• If you apply for more shares than your entitlement, then whether these additional shares will be accepted for buy-back or not will solely depend on the acceptance ratio decided by the company.
