okays open offer exemption to L&T employees foundation
Mumbai: The Securities and Exchange Board of India
has granted Larsen & Toubro Employees Welfare Foundation
exemption from making an open offer for L&T shares,
of which the foundation proposes to purchase another 0.77
per cent from AV Birla group company - Samruddhi Swastik
Trading and Investment Company.
After this acquisition, the Foundation, which currently
holds 14.95 per cent of the paid-up equity capital of
L&T, would hold a stake of 15.72 per cent in the company.
In ordinary circumstances, this would have required the
acquirer to make an open offer.
But the Foundation has got exemption on the grounds that
it has been established for promoting the welfare activities
of the employees of L&T and at the same time to preserve
the professional management model of the target company,
according to SEBI's announcement on its Web site on Tuesday.
The
announcement also noted that the acquirer (the Foundation)
does not intend to trade in the shares of the target company
in the open market and further, that there is no intention
on its part to acquire the control of the management of
the target company. The Foundation will not sponsor directorships
on the board of the company either.
