07 May 2010 difference between voting rights and differential voting rights

07 May 2010 Voting Rights in common parlance would mean regular equity shares with normal voting rights i.e. one vote for one share.

Differential voting rights is used in the context of equity shares that are issued with the terms and conditions specifying that the shares are issued with differential voting rights. Such shares are generally classified as Equity Shares Class B and so forth, whereas, the normal are classified as Class A.

Some examples of shares with differential voting rights and normal votings rights both listed on the stock exchange is Tata Motors.

07 May 2010 Further to the above, in the case of DVR, the voting rights would be something like 1 voting right for every 10 shares.

08 May 2010 Agree with expert. Use of differential voting right is not frequent by companies.
