Hi, I have applied and received 10,000 Spectrum Foods Partly Paid (PP) shares through rights issue (20 Rupees per share) by paying half the amount which is 1 lakh, I have couple of questions.

  1. When will the company usually send the 2nd payment call notice for the remaining amount (1 Lakh) to be paid?
  2. Spectrum Food PP shares got credited to my Zerodha account few days ago, why does the 10,000 PP shares is not getting added to the Spectrum Food shares (2984) and why is it still trading separately (Please see the screenshot)
  3. Spectrum Food PP shares listed at 70% premium with 70k profit and by today (May 17), it’s has reduced to 37%, so the loss is around 32k, it’s in lower circuit since the day the PP shares got listed, there is a sell order each day but I couldn’t sell when I tried as there are no buyers, how does this works?
  4. As the PP shares hitting lower circuit (5% each day), I had bought 301 PP shares in the open market through my same Zerodha account, is this is a mistake to purchase PP shares through open market, will I lose the money? If not, will this 301 shares get added to my already credited PP shares (10,000) and the final total of 10,301 PP shares will get added to my Spectrum Foods holdings (2984 shares) and the average price will be adjusted? Please see the screenshot

I am very new to the Rights Issue concept, this is the first time I have applied for it, so lot of queries / confusion as I have invested more in this rights issue but worried now seeing PP shares hitting lower circuits every day. It will be very helpful if someone can clarify the 4 queries shared above please :pray:

@nithin_kumrr @ShubhS9 - Can you please assist with my query posted above? I am stuck in this spectrum foods rights issue :pray:

Hi @Naveen_Kumar.R , extremely sorry for the delayed response.

The second payment call notice depends on the company’s schedule. There has been no announcement yet, and it is best to follow the company’s announcements on the exchange websites here.

Spectrum Food Partly Paid (PP) shares are trading separately because they are not fully paid-up shares yet. Only after the full payment is made, these PP shares will be converted to fully paid shares and then can be combined with your existing fully paid Spectrum Food shares.

Since the shares are hitting the lower circuit, there are no buyers, or very few buyers, indicating no liquidity, making it difficult to sell the shares. You can place an AMO (After Market Order) or a pre-market order for stocks in circuit limits. This helps as orders are executed on a first-come, first-served basis. However, there is no guarantee that the order will be executed. We’ve explained it here.

The decision to buy additional PP shares on the open market is entirely up to the individual.

Yes, the newly added PP shares will be combined with the existing PP shares, and the average will be adjusted accordingly. As mentioned above, until the second call payment is made, they will remain PP shares and will not be added to the fully paid shares.

Furthermore, all of your PP shares (10,000 + 301) will become fully paid shares after the call payment and will be added to your existing fully paid holdings, adjusting the average price accordingly.
