Hello,
ReplyDeletethanks for putting this up. I have been thinking on this too. Is it legal for the company to change our status from that of shareholders to beneficieries of a trust? They say that the beneficiary of the trust will be " rank pari-passu with the existing equity shareholders".
Also please read the letter that Caneo has sent. They say that there are 2 options from which we are supposed to choose. The 3rd option of conitnuing is mentioned in such a manner that you will never realise that its an option.
Is there any action that we small investors can take? you can each me on 0-94483-62206 Laxmichand Jain
