In six months time it wants to buy back its share. at what price it should be bought back i.e. at premium or face value or it could be done at a lower or higher rate?

10 November 2010 Should ideally be at book value or fair value of the share and not face value or issue price.

10 November 2010 Please refer to Private Limited Company and Unlisted Public LimitedCompany (Buy-Back of Securities) Rules, 1999.

The Explanatory Statement set out alongwith the Special Resolution has to provide for the basis of arriving at the buy back price.

Hence, it is very clear that whatever the price the company decides has to be justifiable.
