The voluntary delisting process of Hexaware Technologies from the BSE and the NSE had started on 9 September 2020 and it closed on 16 September 2020.
The acquirer shall acquire 8,72,86,523 equity shares validly tendered at or below the exit price in the reverse book building process and post completion of the acquisition, the shareholding of the acquirer and promoter along with other members of the promoter group shall be 91.16% of the fully paid up equity share capital of the company, which would exceed the minimum number of equity shares required for the delisting offer to be successful.
