According to this article, only Tata motors spokesperson, PWC, Citi and Axis capital, all funded by Tata motors, feel it is fair deal
The article says otherwise with these points…
The retail investors and mutual funds are set to get a raw deal in the proposed conversion of Tata Motors DVR (differential voting rights) to ordinary shares.
The public DVR holders and mutual funds will lose about ₹15,568 crore and ₹3,000 crore of economic value, while the promoters will gain 1.4 per cent economic share valued at about ₹5,000 crore, per the April 18 closing price.
Post conversion, the promoters holding in Tata Motors will increase to 42.62 per cent from 41.23 per cent, while that of public will slip to 57.38 per cent from 58.77 per cent.
Both type of shares have equal economic right and after accepting that DVRs have traded at sharp discount due to absence of proper market, the company has taken the market approach to ascertain higher weightage for ordinary shares, said Sivakumar R, a retail investor.
Globally, the shares with reduced or no voting rights trade at premium or about the same price to ordinary shares. For instance, the class C shares of Alphabet (Google) with no voting rights trades at a premium to ordinary shares.
Anyway it is not very intelligent to cry over spilt milk. This is just a lesson learnt that Tata group is no Saint either.
It is to pay the TDS on deemed divident,for the conversion of the shares from DVR to main shares.To pay the said TDS, Tata Motors very going to sell the shares equal to the TDS amount. Please refer the excel shared by tata motors earlier.
Tata motors should share the exact calculations hopefully as profit as the delisting day is not disclosed.
I think part of the reason that nobody is talking about unfair price of DVR is because most people including mfs bought when there was 40-60% price discount so when they gave 7:10 ratio, they happily accepted it. Not saying it’s fair but seems like that’s the case.
The biggest con was taxation on deemed dividend of 200 or so. For 35% bracket, effectively means I am paying 70 bucks for each on conversion from DVR to normal. That brings conversion ratio to 60%…
Net swap was put at 68.1% to pay for TDS - a tax incidence created on retail investors by swap scheme (technically this swap was designed as liquidation)
There is a problem with ICICI Direct because I still haven’t received the shares in my demat account, and Tata Motor DVR is still showing in my demat account. Can someone help me?
New shares are seen in my sharekhan demat account. But I didn’t get a confirmation email. I too wanted to ask this here yesterday.
The below article explains nicely everything about the share swap but it assumes 200 per share as deemed dividend. The last trading price of dvr share was 768. Dividend of 200 is 26%, this is insane.
check demat holdings ,not the stock portfolio page. It will appear in demat holdings. I do not know the proess to remove from portfolio page. May be icicidirect doesnt know it either,because this sort of event has taken place for the first time.
Yes. You’re right. Somewhere around 14k+ at my tax slab. This is the fees I need to pay for being long term investor in DVR share.
Over that, I also have other LTCG as well. So I have already breached the miniscule 1.25L limit. The entire sale proceeds will be taxed at 12.5% for LTCG.
You will get some setoff on LTCG against the deemed dividend calculation. Check the sample calculator they had shared before the conversion…it should help you arrive at right tax outgo.
However, at an overall level it still is a lose lose situation for retail investor who held on to DVR vs selling before conversion.
So does this swap mean all investors who have participated in swap will be impacted with LTCG / STCG too?
The only reason I didn’t sell DVR in the market before record-date was that i thought I will save myself from LTCG impact if I continue to hold Tata Motors this year
I truly think Tata Motors have botched this swap big time
Retail investors were originally issued DVR at 10% discount (IPO) but swap was executed at 30% discount - this bottom fishing is just not disappointing… it’s shameful
