@jetha lal: Acceptance ratio can be anything from 50 to 100% , mainly will be depending on share price during tender period. Due to any reason if share price comes around 4200 or above during tender period, then AR may be around 100% and if price keeps below 4K then AR will be lesser around 40-70%. There are many new shareholders this time in retail category just for buyback purpose so it will definitely reduce AR this time. But still in any case, i don't think it will be lesser than 40-50%.
@Lokes Hi Lokes, If you don't mind, Can you enlighten me on how AR is linked with share price during the tender period. I didn't get this answer in chittorgarh article. Thank you.
@Newrookie : if price comes around 4100-4200 suppose any day during tender period then many retailers may sell all shares in open market because in buyback if all are not accepted so remaining shares carries risk of price going down after buyback but in open market all can be sold earning decent risk free profit and amount will be received 10-15 days before only. So less people will tender so more AR as @rajkumar also explained.
Any answer would be appreciated.
