WHAT IS TAKEOVER???

• General term referring to transfer of control of a
  firm from one group of shareholders to another
  group of shareholders. Change in the controlling
  interest of a corporation, either through a friendly
  acquisition or an unfriendly, hostile, bid.
• When an "acquirer" takes over the control of the
  "target company", it is termed as Takeover.
• When an acquirer acquires "substantial quantity of
  shares or voting rights" of the Target Company, it
  results into substantial acquisition of shares.
SEBI GUIDELINES FOR TAKEOVER

• As per 2011 takeover code, its mandate for an acquire to place an
  offer for at least 26% of the total shares of the target company.
• An acquirer with 15% shareholding and increasing it by another
  20% through an open offer would have only got a 35%
  shareholding in the target company .
• An acquirer with a 25% shareholding and increasing it by another
  26% through the open offer under the Takeover Code of 2011 can
  accrue 51% shareholding.
• The regulation further talks about acquirers who already have
  55% or more shares but less than 75% shares of the target
  company but intend to acquire more shares, this can only be done
  if the acquirer makes a public announcement in this regard.
WHY TAKEOVER IS DONE???
• To gain opportunities of market growth more quickly than
  through internal means.
• To seek to gain benefits from economies of scale.
• To seek to gain a more dominant position in a national or
  global market.
• To acquire the skills or strengths of another firm to
  complement the existing business.
• To acquire a speedy access to revenue streams that it
  would be difficult to build through normal internal growth.
• To diversify its product or service range to protect itself
  against downturns in its core markets.

    after tax. Even EPS is very Low.
    2. The fair value of shares issued by Avesh Patel (C.A.) is Rs. 33.53 per
    equity share which is lower than the offer price of Rs. 34 per equity share.
    3. There has been no trading of shares on BSE. Thus it’s highly illiquid on
    BSE. It will provide an exit opportunity to the existing shareholders.
