Buyback of shares can be done either through the open market or through tender offer route. Under the open market mechanism, the company can buy back its shares from the secondary marker.
To undertake a stock buyback, a company typically announces a “repurchase authorization,” which details the size of the repurchase, either in terms of the number of shares it might buy, a percentage of its stock or, most typically, a dollar amount.
If the shareholder is either an employee or a director at the time of the company share buyback and has held the shares for at least 5 years the profit the shareholder makes is taxed as capital at the rate of 10% CGT rising to 14% from 6 April 2025.
Open-market offer: The company can buy back its shares by actively buying from sellers on the exchange. The buyback period is mentioned in the buyback offer, and it can last for months. The amount is credited to the shareholders trading account. The buyback period can be checked by visiting the SEBI (WEB) website.
Companies benefit from a stock buyback because it can preserve or raise stock prices, consolidate ownership, and take the place of dividends. Investors can benefit because they receive capital back. However, a repurchase doesn't always benefit investors.
