Heidelberg gets reprieve from SAT
Mumbai: Heidelberg Cement has received a temporary reprieve with the Securities Appellate Tribunal (SAT) allowing it to go ahead with its open offer to shareholders of Mysore Cements, pending a final order.

SAT has, however, said that if its order was not in favour of Heidelberg, the cement company will have to pay the difference amount of Rs14.50 per share.

Heidelberg had earlier this month approached SAT against a SEBI directive for raising its open offer price to shareholders of Mysore Cements by 25 per cent.

The SEBI directive meant Heidelberg would have had to pay the shareholders Rs72.50 per share against its open offer of Rs58 per share, a difference of Rs14.50 per share.
