UTV Software Communications to Compulsorily Eject Loyal Remaining Public Shareholders

 UTV Software Communications , a Walt Disney Company delisted in 2012 @ Rs.1100 


Its prospects have become very bright after its parent bought Rupert Murdoch 's 21 st Century Fox .

It , now , wants to kick out remaining loyal Non Promoter shareholders @ Rs 500 (  Less than 50% what it offered 6 years back.)

So called independent valuers/ CA M/s.Deloitte Haskins And Sells has valued the share at only Rs.26 / 30 ( So , the Company is doing a great favour )

But the Company would keep 5 shares with any 5 of its employees so that it remains a Public Limited Company ( Minimum 7 shareholders are required )

Games Promoters Play ( on Minority Public Shareholders ).

Promoters use clever moves to forcibly eject Public shareholders when ever they feel like i.e. when the Company has excellent future prospects or when it suits the Promoters. 


1 ) Selective cancellation of Non Promoters shares.


2 ) Conversion of Equity shares in to Redeemable Preference Shares.


3 ) Consolidation of face value of one share to a Higher Denomination .



In all cases , valuers are appointed and Paid by the Company. Thus they are Promoters' Agents.

If the Company feels that the rate it is offering is " FAIR " then it should , also , be willing to offer to sell its entire majority  holding at that rate . The minority share holders ( and other Indian share holders ) should have a Right of Pre emption at that " FAIR " rate. For example if Cadbury India Limited feels that Rs.2000 is a " fair rate " then Indian shareholders in general should be given an opportunity to form a SPV ( Special Purpose Vehicle ) Company which ( with suitable debt equity Leveraged Buy out ) and buy  at the same rate  the majority shares from the Promoters. A period of 6 months should be kept for giving this opportunity to Non Promoter Indian shareholders
