Anil Ambani has announced three bonus RPL shares for every five held. Also, he protected REL's stake from dilution by personally Contributing 2.60 pc of his own holding.
A week after first announcing that shareholders of Reliance Power Limited will be given free bonus shares to mitigate the losses they suffered post IPO, Anil Ambani not only fulfilled his promise but also contributed $ 1.20 Billion(Rs. 5,000 Crore) worth of his own stake towards the cause.
Addressing mediapersons here on Sunday, Ambani admitted that one of the options in front of the company was to simply do nothing.
" But after deliberating, we have decided to issue three bonus shares for every five of the RPL held in the larger intrest of shareholders, excluding the promoter group. This is an unprecedented step for any capital market around the World" He said.
