SEBI has amended SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, 2009 and notified the SEBI (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) (Third Amendment) Regulations,2015.
The new norms, will provide all listed companies a ‘fast-track’ route for share sales, accordingly firms in which public shareholders own stocks worth Rs 1,000 crore will now be able to access this route through a follow-on public offer (FPO) against the old requirement of minimum Rs 3,000 crore.
Under the ‘fast-track’ route, a listed company would not be required to file any draft offer document for its FPO or rights issue and they can proceed with fund-raising program without necessarily getting ‘observations’ from SEBI.
Further, for rights issues, promoters will not renounce their rights, except to the extent of renunciations within the promoter group, or for the purposes of complying with minimum public shareholding norms.
This new mode would be allowed only for those firms in which the promoter group and directors of the issuer have not settled any alleged violation of securities laws through the consent mechanism with SEBI in the past three years.
