Our advisory is valuation-centric, compliance-driven, and shareholder-focused, supporting stakeholders through pricing, regulatory processes, and execution stages.

We assist clients in navigating the delisting process with clarity, ensuring that fair price determination, reverse book building, and regulatory disclosures are aligned with SEBI requirements and minority shareholder protection norms.

What is Delisting?

Delisting refers to the permanent removal of a company’s equity shares from a recognized stock exchange. Delisting may be voluntary, initiated by promoters, or compulsory, enforced by stock exchanges.

Our advisory focuses on voluntary delisting, where promoters offer to acquire shares from public shareholders and take the company private in compliance with SEBI regulations.

Delisting provides an exit opportunity to public shareholders while allowing promoters to restructure ownership and operations.

Liquidity
