What will happen if I don’t make the call payment?
If you fail to pay the call money the partly-paid shares may be forfeited (the current ASM Technologies Ltd. partly-paid shares you hold will be worthless and will not trade on exchanges as the company will allot new shares under different ISIN). The company may also levy interest on the amount you owe.
ASM Technologies Ltd. (ASMTEC) will issue Rights Entitlements (REs) to anyone who holds its shares as of March 21, 2022 (record date). You will be eligible to receive Rights Entitlements (REs) if you have bought the shares on or before March 16, 2022. The ex-date is March 17, 2022.

How to apply for the ASM Technologies Rights Issue?
Once you either receive the REs from the company or purchase them from the market, you will need to apply for the rights shares using Netbanking ASBA. You can check the process in this post.
You can also apply for rights shares through the website of the Registrar and Transfer agent. The website might not be fully live until the issue opens for the subscription.
You will need to enter your demat account’s Beneficiary Owner ID which is a 16-digit number while applying either on the RTA’s website or through your bank.
What will happen to my purchased holding of RE shares if I do not apply for the rights issue?
Your REs will lapse and you will lose the premium paid to acquire them. The RE will be in the form of temporary demat securities which will lapse if not renounced/exercised once the trading window is closed.
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. You may apply for the rights shares either through the RTA’s portal or via net banking ASBA if your bank allows it. If you don’t take any action, and let the REs remain in your Zerodha account, they will lapse after the issue.
