Should we hold the remaining Qty?
If you have invested purely for Buyback, then take exit.
Can we sell it today itself?
NIIT 1231/2000 Accepted
AR=61.5
Confirmed AR=61.5%
Where do you see AR?
Any updates Mw? And the reason behind this fall?
It means full allotment might not happen in retail.
What will be the AR of NIIT Ltd, any updates?
Any update on what was final bidding for retail Investor, based on that AR can be predicted.
259.45% showing in BSE is cumulative of both BSE and NSE or only BSE?
If this is cumulative, then I suppose AR for retail investor will be very good, more than 60%. Correct if I am wrong.
69532970=259.45% shared tendered on BSE up to 3:30 PM on 06.12.2019, the last day.
60515134@225.8% share tendered on BSE @3:30 PM on 05.12.2019. Still one more day is left. It seems AR would be very near to ER.
What is meant by HNI?
There are close to 12,000 orders only. Total, number of small shareholders are close to 63,000. We may have a good acceptance ration here.
Where do you see on BSE? Is it like only on BSE or, it will be on NSE also? is it like buyback is being done only via BSE for NIITLTD? Thanks in advance
The bids are always received at both exchanges.
I hope Market Wizard adds live buyback subscription page to the site.
Hello Market Wizard, Could you answer my below question..
Currently BSE Demand schedule for niit buyback shows around 88%. But i have participated in this Buyback through Zerodha trading console, it is still showing Pending.. looks like Zerodha will put all its customer order to exchange only on last day of buyback. So my question here is, so current demand schedule showing at BSE is not accurate right, since zerodha like brokers will place most of their bids at last day?
Yes. Last day correct figure will come.
Till 3.30 pm 29.11.2019, @ 74% shares have been tendered on BSE.
I have 2500( 800 share in DP and 1700 share in pool account) share of niit ltd on record date
18.10.19.
How many share for eligible for buy back ?
If I didn’t get offer letter then my name won’t in company book on 18 oct
I haven’t received Offer letter from company others received offer letter from company. What should I do now? Ple tell me market wizard
*NIIT Buyback: Entitlement Ratio 21.80%*
Hi MW,
What is the meaning of entitlement ratio? If I had 100 shares in my account as of record date, does it mean that I will only be able to tender 21 shares for buyback? If that’s the case, is it guaranteed that the 21 shares will be accepted?
Thanks in Advance.
Entitlement means, 21 shares are a sure shot to be accepted. You can sell 79 shares and rest assured with the remaining 21.
Does this mean, I can tender only 21 out of 100 shares? If yes, would the acceptance ratio based on the number of shares tendered (I.e. number of shares actually bought back would be lower)?
Can I exit the balance shares (79shares) on market today onwards?
For HNI invrestors?
Niit buyback open date on 25 November and close on 6th December and payment on 17th December
Hi
Any update on buyback opening date????
Now share price is increasing and we already exited.
So when buyback date comes, We need to buy with highm price
So it became a bad idea
This is the beauty of the stock market…
Market Wizard today there is a meeting in Niit Ltd- In context for buyback?
When buy back is likely to open?
Sharp fall in the price, looks like this is not a good arbitration…
AmritlalBhurmal
Hi MW,
Could you help me with below 2 queries ..
1) I bought this today(Oct 16) in zerodha.
Can I sell on 18th Oct or Do I need to wait till 21st Oct ???
2) Any idea when will be the buyback date ??
The shares will come in Demat on 18th. So you will be able to sell on 21st only. You should have bought 2-3 days earlier..
Market wizard any prediction on Tomorrow’s downfall.
Wohi dar hai sir. Kal agar bach Gaya toh maza aa jayega. let us see.
Expected Acceptance Ratio?
As per latest shareholding pattern, retail investors (holding value less than 2 lakhs Rs) is around 2.5 crores … so assuming if all this retail investors participate in this buyback .. the minimum acceptance ratio comes around 16% … as around 40 Lakhs shares is reserved for retail investors in this buyback proposal ..
30%.
The way this this stock is getting bombarded, this will become another mphasis or heg after record date. Better avoid new entry than making fresh positions.
Today it lost almost 10 Rs.
yes, not a good sign.
If I buy today(16th Oct) , am I eligible for buyback ??
Yes.
Ple reply market wizard
Can sell share on ex date which is on 17 Oct then will I eligible for buyback tender.
Yes, but we have in the past faced issues with Zerodha. So better to sell after the 18th. or better confirmed from your broker.
I have SBI demat ac
I have SBI CAP demat AC .tell me what should I do?
Sir give me reply
Usually if u sell shares … it will be debited from your Demat account on T+1 day.. so if you sell on 17th Oct, shares will be debited from Demat Account on 18th Oct … but on the company(NIIT) record it will be reflected only on 19th Oct so as per record date 18th Oct it will still show ur name on company record .. so u will be eligible for buyback .. But as market wizard suggested just call to ur broker and confirm once
In Zerodha it is showing Open Market purchase, here it is mentioned for Tender offer. Market wizard please confirm?
tender offer.
Hi Market Wizard,
We know that you have mentioned this is good level for purchase, but do you sense anything wrong here because share price continues to fall even when buyback record date is so close?
Please guide if we should still continue to accumulate.
Regards.
Yes, you are right. The sense is not coming positive. So better to buy less quantity.
Any advice Market wizard
For the buyback?
Buy Karo 85-88 ke level pe.
NIIT LTD company 16% share buy back ker rahi hai ye share kya keval public se hi liye jate h ya sabhi se Promotr and mutual fund se bhi pls rply
sabse liye jaayenge including Promoter, Mutual Funds, Insurance Companies, HUFs, FIIs and HNIs.
Record date-18th October
Really declared?
Will the record date would be declared on 5th of October?
Record Date may be announced on 5th itself after declaration of result. However, Special Resolution is valid for one year. But if promoters want money sooner they will choose the earliest possible record date.
Some big game has happened today in NIIT. The NIITIAN trust sold shares in open market. They could have waited for buyback and participate in it.
Buyback would be only 15% for General Category Investor. The seller seems to have a view that ex buyback the Market price would be below 85. He booked profit on all his investments yesterday rather than having some profit on 15% of his investments (Buyback) and a much lower rate on 85% of his investment.
Had there is no buyer at 83 when a sudden fall happened from 90 odd levels the share would have hit LC as it was a huge volume to consume. However, the share do not hit LC and recovered in no time. This suggests they have done this in a planned way.
Of Course this was a prenegotiated deal a d NIIT welfare is most probably out of it’s entire holding of NIIT. This is only indicator of valuation. There is definitely someone for whom deal is attractive.
The main devil is tax even if company did EPS of 65 on sale of NIIT Tech. distributing that will lead to tax of about 33%in case of buyback and 40% in case of dividend. Which is whooping RS 21 to RS 26. Remember that company has already paid income tax to get that RS 65.
Today fall in NIIT
NIITLTD
NIITIANS WELFARE TRUST S 1,518,028 85.21
NIITIANS WELFARE TRUST SELL 14,89,935 85.44 –
Today it gave an opportunity to buy at 84 levels but just for a moment. Those who were on screens may be able to buy it.
There is some desperate seller who was selling today at below Rs85. It looks like this will tank ex buyback to its 52 lows of around Rs 65. Confirm Entitlement is 13% rest is dependent upon how many people buy the stock till record date and how many tender. There is huge money in the system people had put in abut 2000crors just for buyback in Wipro. So, forget days of 100% acceptance.
MW Sir,
Expected price after BB?
Expected AR?
what is the expected AR
the market is falling and it si very risky
Already we have burned our hands in quickheal and more, wipro also didn’t provide the profit as expected
Keep an eye on NIIT. Good buying opportunity around 88-90.
Now Wipro payout is executed. Expect NIIT to rise because most people would deploy Cash received from Wipro to NIIT.
Hi Team,
Could you please share how to book profit for shares, which are brought in offer for sell? whether we need to sell the share immediately or need to wait for 10 or 20 days to see any profit?
Which OFS you are talking about?
Sbi Life Insurance
Still allotment not done. In case if it’s allotted , could would be better approach in booking profit? whether to sell the share immediately or need to hold for 10-20 days to better profit…
Insurance and AMC these days are the best stock to invest. A lot of buying interest is coming from Institutional investors. So you can hold the share no problem but horizon should 2-3 months not 10-20 days.
Please share some strategy stock trailing @ 34% discount.
please some body tell me , if i have the shares in my dmat account on record date of buyback, then i sell it after record date and repurchase it before buyback closing date. am i entitle to participate in buyback ? will my tender be considered for buyback of shares or not ?
yes ofcourse
If you sell your shares before record date and buy shares again, after the record date, you will not be eligible.
Portal ballot notice
https://investorzone.in/wp-content/uploads/99314da3-b012-4162-aab6-eabe6eccf74c.pdf
Except for buyback around the third week of Oct.
Any specific strategy at current level
NIIT at 85-88 pe acha buy ban sakta hai.
What can be the expected price after buy back?
94 levels look good to enter this script for bb
Already level of 90 has hit today and falling…. So, better avoid this one.. this will be similar to mphasis where people stuck at high level.
52 wk low is 60 and now a days many script are touching 52 wk low level. So, NIIT will be going for that too if nifty is making lower lows.
Whole market is falling.
I think as record date is not announced, one can buy in small quantity on every dip like may be in multiple of 400
I think Postal ballot will be required here , so it can take around 1-2 months for record date to be declared. Kindly correct if wrong ?
Yes, Postal Ballot is required.
What about buyback tax is it applicable to this buyback ????
Yes.
is the CMP good to enter for this buyback or can we expect downside in the near future?
I think on Tuesday it will open higher. So will make strategy accordingly. The price of 93-98 is good to enter.
[11/08, 10:59] Market Wizard: NIIT limited exceptional EPS of 65 came due to selling of its shares in NIIT tech to one of the investors.
The reserves and paid up capital upto 31.03.2019 was 833 Cr. The max buyback size is 25% of this reserve and paid up capital. Generally all companies which do buyback in a year takes 31.03.2019 reserve and paid up capital as reference.
However, due to selling of shares by NIIT limited they get 1291 cr.
So that they have taken reserve and paid up capital of 30.06.2019 as a base to bring buyback.
That is why the size of buyback is 335 cr.
So first they have earned good money via selling stakes and now the company is doing buyback of 335 cr
Win win situation for promoters.
Yeah deal nhn Hui hoti toh itna bada buyback na aata.😬
As per the annual report 20180-19, the shares between 1000-5000 are only 78 Lakh. So assuming some more people add for buyback, the accepted AR should be above 30%.
The company has shown an EPS of 65 due to exceptional income. This item has come up due to:
After the close of FY19, the Company executed a Share Purchase Agreement (“SPA)” on April 6, 2019, with Hulst B.V. (“Purchaser”) and NIIT Technologies Limited (“NTL”) for the sale of its entire shareholding, comprising 14,493,480 equity shares of Rs. 10/- each in the equity share capital of NTL, to A purchaser at Rs. 1,394/- per equity share, for an aggregate consideration of Rs. 20,204 million as per the terms and conditions stated in the SPA.
Buyback approved at Rs. 125 per share
