Shares of Fulford India have surged 11% to 1,685 on the BSE after the company announced the schedule for its proposed voluntary delisting of the equity shares through reverse book-building process.

The stock opened at Rs 1,600 and hit a high of Rs 1,717 on the BSE.  Around 5,791 shares changed hands till 1354 hours, against an average 4,600 shares that were traded daily in past two weeks.

Dashtag, the promoter which holds 74.95% stake in Fulford India, seeks to acquire up to 976,763 shares representing 25.05% of the share capital from all public shareholders of the company.

As per the schedule, the bid opening date is June 3, 2015. The last date for upward revision or withdrawal of bids has to be June 8 and bid closing date is June 9, Morgan Stanley India Company Private Limited, a manager to delisting offer said in a BSE statement.
