De-Listing

Voluntary de-listing is when a company, with shareholder approval, removes its equity shares from stock exchanges, in line with SEBI (Delisting of Equity Shares) Regulations, allowing promoters to take the company private.

Companies typically de-list to reduce regulatory obligations, consolidate ownership, address undervaluation, or pursue long-term strategic realignment outside public markets.

Shareholders are provided a SEBI-regulated exit opportunity, primarily through Reverse Book Building or other approved methods, ensuring pricing fairness and transparency.

Reverse Book Building enables shareholders to bid a price for their shares. The final offer price is discovered through this transparent, market-driven process.

Subject to regulatory timelines and shareholder response, the full process typically spans three to six months, from announcement to final approval.
