Sebi Exempts Six Muthoot Family Trusts from Open Offer Requirement in Restructuring
Sebi has exempted six Muthoot family trusts from the open offer obligation related to an internal restructuring involving indirect share acquisition in Muthoot Microfin. The restructuring includes multiple share transfers among the trusts and promoters' spouses, resulting in the trusts holding a 63.35% stake in Muthoot Fincorp, which owns 50.21% of Muthoot Microfin. The exemption follows changes prompted by Muthoot Fincorp's IPO approval and complies with minimum promoter contribution norms. The exemption is valid for one year with reporting conditions.
