Let’s revisit one of the recent TCS Buyback, 2022

Let’s say, someone bought 44 shares (Rs. 2L) before the Record Date at Rs. 3,857 to earn some guaranteed returns in the buyback.

Now, on 01-APR-2022, TCS announced 26% acceptance ratio, which means he successfully sold 11 shares at Rs. 4,500 making profit of Rs 7,073.

And remaining 33 shares he is still holding as on 28-MAY-2023.

Hope this information helps!!
