Stock Market Today: Govt may offload 3.5% via initial OFS
According to a government official, the government may consider selling only 3.5 percent of its 29.5 percent stake in Hindustan Zinc Limited (HZL) through the offer for sale (OFS) route in the initial tranche, as investor interest remains low and keeping 26 percent will allow the government to retain some rights as a shareholder. Investors in this (HZL) case want the government to remain a shareholder. The OFS will be structured in response to investor demand. Some rights remain with the shareholder up to 26 percent. Many rights will be lost if the government falls short of 26 percent. As a result, the government may consider dumping 3.5 percent.
