You apply through Samco Backoffice, and if your shares are accepted, the payout is credited directly to your bank account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your entitlement is based on your shareholding as of the record date. You can tender up to your entitlement, tendering more doesn&#8217;t guarantee additional acceptance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Open Market Buyback<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here the company buys shares from the open market through the exchange during a specified period. There is no separate application process; you simply sell your shares on the exchange as you normally would during the buyback window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is acceptance guaranteed?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No. In a tender offer, acceptance is entirely the company&#8217;s decision; your shares may be accepted fully, partially, or not at all. If only partially accepted, the remaining tendered shares are returned to your DEMAT.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":65,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"ht_kb_category":[2867],"ht_kb_tag":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/26373"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ht_kb"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/65"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26373"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/26373\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26375,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/26373\/revisions\/26375"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26373"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb_category?post=26373"},{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb_tag?post=26373"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
