01
Assess the proposal
Review the company’s objectives, financial information and proposed buyback structure with its advisers.
Capital management / Buybacks
A thoughtful return of capital.
A share buyback is a capital-allocation decision with shareholder and execution implications. We help companies assess the proposed structure and coordinate the process.
Discuss Buybacks
How we help
Bring the financial decision and the process together
A buyback should be considered alongside the company’s balance sheet, future funding needs and shareholder objectives. Advisory work brings the financial assessment, approvals, communication and execution into a consistent transaction plan.
02
Coordinate approvals & disclosures
Align the required corporate approvals and transaction documents with the applicable framework.
03
Execute & close
Coordinate participation, settlement and completion workstreams with the appointed intermediaries.
Before we begin
The information
that starts the work.
An initial review helps identify priorities and the questions to resolve. These are useful starting materials for our conversation.
- Latest audited and interim financial information
- Capital structure and current shareholding pattern
- Proposed buyback objectives and funding source
- Existing capital commitments and relevant corporate records
A useful distinction
Understand the framework. Then plan the transaction.
Rules, eligibility and required steps depend on the company, the securities and the proposed structure. The linked official source provides a starting point for further reading.
SEBI’s investor guidance notes that the stock-exchange purchase route was phased out from 1 April 2025. The available method must be checked against the current framework.

A little more clarity
Questions worth asking.
Is a buyback automatically the best use of surplus cash?
No. It is one capital-allocation option. The company needs to consider business investment, liquidity, financing requirements and shareholder objectives.
What information is needed first?
Start with the financial statements, capital structure, proposed funding source and the board’s objectives for the transaction.
Can all shareholders tender their entire holding?
Participation and acceptance depend on the terms and applicable rules. The offer documents explain entitlement, tendering and acceptance mechanics.
