10 Companies floating right shares worth Rs 14 arba; 23 companies in pipeline to issue Rs 11.92 arba worth right shares

In the last 2 months, Securities Board of Nepal (SEBON) has provided approval to 24 companies issue their right shares. As the deadline to meet the paid up capital requirement is coming near, SEBON has also been providing approval to BFIs sooner. For example, Garima Bikas Bank’s right share application was approved in 10 days. Jyoti Bikas Bank also got approval quicker than many commercial banks. Last year, SEBON had renounced the requirement for major BFIs to undergo credit rating, due to which the BFIs have been getting approval sooner to meet NRB’s paid up capital requirement before the end of FY 2073/74. Now, there are additional 23 companies worth Rs 11.92 arba added in SEBON right share pipeline for approval. This increased supply in right shares is an opportunity for the shareholders to purchase additional new shares of the companies at par value of Rs 100. On the other hand, this has created increased pressures in existing shareholders to gather money for applying for the right offers. Altogether, 11 companies have been issuing right shares to their shareholders currently. Laxmi Bank Limited (LBL), Nepal Bank Limited (NBL), Citizens Bank International Limited (CZBIL), Nepal Bangladesh Bank Limited (NBB), Sanima Bank Limited (SANIMA), Prabhu Insurance Company Limited (PRIN), Siddhartha Development Bank Limited (SDBL), Tourism Development Bank (TDBL), Garima Bikas Bank (GBBL) and Deprosc Development Bank Limited (DDBL) have been issuing right shares to their shareholders. Among these BFIs, Tourism, Deprosc and Laxmi are floating 1:1 (100%) right share to its shareholders. A total of 3.8 crore units right share worth Rs 3.80 arba are open. Ongoing right shares:
