23.5.3. As defined in Regulation 2(1)(la) of the Buyback Regulations, a “Small Shareholder” is a Shareholder who holds Equity Shares having market value, on the basis of the closing price on February 23, 2022, i.e., the Record Date, of not more than ₹200,000 (Rupees Two Lakh only). As on the Record Date, the closing price on NSE, being the Recognized Stock Exchange having the highest trading volume, was ₹ 3,750(maximum possible)per Equity Share. Accordingly, all Eligible Shareholders holding not more than 53 Equity Shares as on the Record Date are classified as ‘Small Shareholders’ for the purpose of the buyback offer.
As per this extract, closing price on record date 23rd. How can they decide at 3750 price "was" when the share trading now is in progress with exchange open? Highest trading volume & closing price will be known only today EOD.

I bought 22 shares on Monday morning but in zerodha it is still showing T1 and in cdsl app it is not showing does it mean I am not able to participate in buyback ??
I bought 44 shares on Monday afternoon but in sbi securities it is still showing Unsettled Stock does it mean I am not able to participate in buyback ??
I have hedged from the day of buyback announcement. Till date I have reduced my buying cost by about Rs. 70/- by simply selling CE. I have more quantity and hence it seemed a good idea to hedge. If you have small quantity, buying more at lower levels may be a better idea.
No meaning for buyback. no differece in cmp or buyback price. perhaps cmp may be rise before buyback record price. so its totally loss making offer. No logic for buyback for customers
Hi I bought 22 shares on Monday morning but in zerodha it is still showing T1 and in cdsl app also it is not showing in holding does it means I am not eligible for buyback ??
According to financial express.... .. Buyback Size: Rs 18,000 crore – Buyback Price: Rs 4500/share – CMP (as of 21 Feb 2022): Rs 3720/share – Buyback Premium: Rs 780/share (17.3%) – Record Date: 23rd February 2022 – Total number of shares to be bought back: 4 crore shares (1.1% of paid-up equity) – Shares reserved for small shareholders: ~0.6 crore shares (15% of buyback offer) – Based on Buy Back price of Rs 4500, one can tender up to 44 shares (Rs 2,00,000/4500) to be eligible for Retail category This should make all if.. buts doubt clear
This is weird...Most of the people were of the opinion that record date highest volume price will be considered to check for retail quota. If 4500 rs price is considered and hence only 44 shares maximum for retail quota, then all those who bought 48-50 shares thinking record date price would be less than 4000 are now falling in general category.?????
Many people are having the misconception that up to 44 shares will be counted in Retail category and some of these people are spreading incorrect information without verifying the facts from authentic sources.
To clear the things once more, request all to read the FAQ from TCS's site (page 19) which mentions the price as on record date to fix the category. Link is given below:
Further, it also clearly tells that - 'The Company will pay buyback tax as provided under the Income Tax Act, 1961. As the Company will pay the buyback tax, any proceeds would be exempt from taxation under the Income Tax Act, 1961 for the shareholders.'
@Cautious: i have already seen this news and their author are also ignorant like many others. @snipper: don't worry at all....its very basic thing of buyback, i am participating from 5-6 years in buyback. whatever i keep mentioning in different comments here is correct. Retail category will be decided as per closing price on record date for upto 2 lakh worth of shares.
Below is the link for the news and in same news, this is also mentioned. https://www.financialexpress.com/market/tcs-share-buyback-how-likely-are-you-to-make-quick-profit-if-you-tender-shares-analysts-explain/2440234/
Retail investors looking for short term opportunity can buy the shares of TCS (upto the value of Rs 2 lakhs – as on the record date) from the open market and tender them in the buy-back offer,” said Motilal Oswal in its note.

As per my understanding this report is o.k , except for 200000 ÷3720 for eligibility under retail category. Recorded price is often misunderstood as record date price. It is the price just prior to going ex . Anil Singhvi today told in zee business that record date closing price is taken for determination.
@Asoke Sarkar There is a confusion in your prev post.
Can you tell what as per Anil singhvi , would be the date and price that would be taken into consideration for retail ? Is it Ex-Date viz 22Feb and Price at the start of the Ex date ie 3720 that one should use for calculating elilibilty?
Dear All There appears a confusion about market price on record date to determine small shareholders eligibility.
Share price determining eligibility is given by the stock exchange where TCS planned to conduct the buy back later, NSE or BSE. The said exchange provides share price on 23rd EOD, today to buy back window based on traded price with the highest volume on 23rd. It takes into reckoning prices with volumes over entire trading duration today and aggregates to arrive with traded price. It is not closing price as the last few trades before closing can be manipulated to benefit or not benefit shareholders on the edge.
To be eligible below 2 lakh , one could have purchased shares up to say 50~52 shares at 3720. This would have meant cutting it close, if record date price spikes above 3800. So experts here advocated computing the quantity with 4500 with safe margin.
15 Lac Shareholder till 31st december and assume maximum 5 lac applicants may be increased for buyback. Total 10 Lac applicants who will participate in buyback and around 30000 applicants will apply with 2 lac means around 50 share 30000 x 50 = 1500000 ( 15 lac shares) Rest 1lac applicants with 25 Share 100000 x 25 = 2500000 870000x 10 share = 8700000
@Nilaykumar : Tender window will normally open after 2-3 weeks of record date, they will send mail to all eligible people who are holding shares on record date. And tender window will open for around 2 weeks duration. you can tender shares from your broker site. And obviously you can sell your shares in open market instead of tender , its your wish your shares. you can buy again also to tender them if you wish.
@hostpacker. You have taken 15 lacs individuals as small investors as per share holding pattern but not all 15 lacs are small investors. If you divide total number of shares held by them than you will come to know. These 15 lacs are shareholders holding share capital (not value) less than 2 lacs. Share capital is no. of shares multiply by face value whereas share value is no. of shares multiply by cmp. Hope its clear
Some people had bought TCS only for being eligible for buyback. Many of them exited today, after recording their eligibility. They think that TCS will go down further and then it will be time to buy and tender their shares in buyback.
