Penny stock at Rs 5.04 and promoters & FIIs increase stake: This small-cap company plan support agreement for the acquisition of 100 per cent of the equity of Ebix Inc
From Rs 3.01 per share (52-week low) to Rs 5.04 per share, the stock is up by 67.44 per cent.
Vikas Lifecare Limited (VLL) has announced positive developments regarding their participation in a consortium aiming to acquire Ebix Inc. The consortium, led by Eraaya Lifespaces Limited, has secured approval from Ebix's independent directors for their Plan Support Agreement. This agreement outlines the terms of the acquisition, which involves Vikas Lifecare acting as the "stalking horse bidder" for Ebix's entire equity (100 per cent).
As part of the agreement, the consortium has submitted a 5 per cetn cash deposit to move forward. The acquisition process will be conducted through a Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization, negotiated between the consortium, major Ebix stakeholders, and subject to approval by the US Bankruptcy Court. This plan aims to help Ebix Inc. and its affiliated debtors emerge from Chapter 11. The proposal entails the consortium acquiring all of Ebix's equity, encompassing assets and liabilities of its global subsidiaries (excluding those of the North American arm) with any exceptions being determined by the Stalking Horse Plan Support Agreement. The consortium, which includes Vikas Lifecare, has expressed its commitment to collaborating with Ebix representatives to facilitate a successful exit from Chapter 11 through the sponsored plan.
