I don’t have the shares but bought REs, am I still eligible to apply for the rights issue?
In case you have bought REs but don’t have shares, you’re still eligible for the rights issue.

Good post, but unfortunately IRB infra trust is a private trust with around 51% held by IRB and 49% held by GIC.
I hope IRB and GIC are reading this post :slight_smile: , otherwise for general public there isn’t a way to participate in this

Again, no one is trading in this. So there would have been no way for people to buy before 11 and get RE.
