Everything you need to know about The South Indian Bank Limited Rights Issue

Any idea on CAF no ? while applying for right issue through HDFC bank there is an ask for CAF no

Iā€™m not an expert but Iā€™m having an opinion that you have to pay additional 22/ per share for buying right issue in ASBA. Equal amount will be blocked by bank and partial amount would be released if you get partial allotment.(just like IPO block and unblock process).But hear client has to apply in ASBA by their own and broker doesnā€™t have anything to do in this matter what I suppose.
I hv additional question to Zerodha
In case of applying additional right issue should one have to buy RE from market (currently 7+/)
Or if one apply directly in ASBA???pls adv.
Also suggest if additional buying is worthy or not as currently share price is 29/.
And one buys RE 7+22(right issue price) =29(same as mkt price)

You can apply for any number of shares, irrespective of the REs you hold. However, the allotment will be guaranteed only to the extent of REs held. For remaining shares, the allotment will be done on lottery basis and if you donā€™t get the allotment, amount will be refund.

If you need guaranteed allotment, then you will need to buy additional shares.

Yes.

You will have to pay Rs. 22. The amount you pay for purchasing REs isnā€™t accounted while you apply for rights shares as this amount goes to the shareholder who sold the REs.

As the applications are now submitted online, CAF number isnā€™t needed. You can keep that field blank.

Okay. So If I buy more REs then I will get a guaranteed allotment but the share price in this case will not be 22/share but will be 22(issue price) + 7(RE price) = 29/share. Correct me if wrong

Iā€™m going to apply for the South Indian Bank rights issue using my HDFC Bank account. While applying, itā€™s asking for the CAF number & Facilitator Code, but Iā€™m unable to find it. Could you kindly help me check this?

Please help ASAP.

CAF number:
Facilitator Code:
Depository:
DP Name:
DP Id:
Beneficiary A/C no:

Right.

CAF number isnā€™t supposed to be mandatory now since there are no physical rights composite application forms. If the bank hasnā€™t removed it from their portal, you can enter any dummy number (For e.g.your PAN). Please reach out to your bank for making the required changes on their portal. Some banks have already grey-ed out this field.

This is up to you. You should do what you think is best.

Hi @ShubhS9
While applying for SIB rights issue via net banking ASBA, it is asking for Category and the options are ā€œRetailā€ and ā€œShareholder of the issuing companyā€.
What should i choose here if i have only RE shares in my demat account and not the SIB equity shares?
Note: I sold my SIB equity shares once i received my RE shares in demat account and i also bought addotional RE shares from market. So now confused to choose whether Shareholder of the issuing company option or Retail option.
No.of RE shares in my demat account=107
No.of SIB equity shares=0
It would be really helpful if someone could answer this.

I think you should apply with fresh holder.As per my assumption SBI will reconsider the right shares issued against holding(Guaranteed)and RE bought additionally (depending on Allotment ratio).
Ideally when they will recheck your already holding they will find that you have already sold your holdings then they will allot as per acceptance ration wise Allotment.
This is what common sense says rest zerodha team will give you exact answer

you are suppose to apply in shareholder category as you had share /s on eod record date .

Being holder of 50 South Indian Bank I received 12 shares RE,

But purchased 112 more at average of 7/-,so now itā€™s reflecting 124 RE on my holdings.

Would like to know what will happen on 20th March i.e will I get allocation of 124 shares,if Yes then will I have to pay remaining amount of 2728/- and how?

Or if I sell 124 REs including 12 of my RE what will happen on issue closing day?

Kindly guide here.

Hi @Praveen_Chandrasekar

When you buy the REs, you get the option to buy additional shares of the company at 22 per share. Consider this a discount for existing shareholders. You must apply for or sell these REs before they expire or you lose the premium you paid to acquire them. The REs are temporary securities that will expire if not renounced or exercised once the trading window closes.

Letā€™s say you applied for the REs, the corresponding number of REs held will be extinguished, and the rights shares you applied for will be credited to your demat account on the allotment date.

Hi @karthikvasagan , the rights issue application can only be made through Netbanking ASBA or by submitting an offline application to the branch of Self-Certified Syndicate Bank (SCSB). Weā€™ve explained how to apply for a rights issue here.

Hi @Rahul1 , could you please check now? I tried looking up this, and it is available. Once you log in to net banking, navigate to e-services > ASBA and IPO/ Rights. You will find the South Indian Bank Rights issue there.

The CAF number is no longer required because applications are now submitted online. You can leave that field blank.

Hi @Shailesh_Salve

Apologies for the delayed response. You can either sell them before the renunciation date March 14th, or apply for the rights issue through Netbanking ASBA or by submitting an offline application to the branch of Self-Certified Syndicate Bank (SCSB) before the issue closes to get the allocation. Please ensure you have sufficient balance in your bank account when applying for the rights as it will be blocked accordingly. Hereā€™s how you apply: How to apply for rights issue?

If you sell your REs within the renunciation date, you will receive the price * the number of REs sold. If not sold within the renunciation date. Your REs will expire, and you will lose the premium paid to acquire them. Explained here

Hi @Cloud_saver3_3 , since you held the shares when the REs were issued, you need to apply for the rights issue under the shareholder category.
