Sebi had earlier refused permission to the company for its delisting plans, saying that it had benefited from a specially designed offer-for-sale (OFS) route for expanding the public float of shares.

The company's foreign promoter Fresenius Kabi (Singapore) Pte currently holds 81% stake in the company. While the company had earlier sold 9% promoter stake through an OFS, it later proposed to delist its shares from the stock exchanges rather than selling a further 6% to meet the minimum public shareholding requirement.

Fresenius Kabi (Singapore) Pte had announced delisting plan in April 2013. The foreign promoter had said at that time that it intends to pay an indicative price of up to Rs 130 per share to acquire the shares offered to it in the delisting offer.

Fresenius Kabi Oncology reported net loss of Rs 7.76 crore in Q4 March 2013 as against net profit of Rs 1.68 crore in Q4 March 2012. Net sales declined 32.64% to Rs 70.54 crore in Q4 March 2013 over Q4 March 2012.
