Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
SEBI approved IHH Healthcare Berhad's request to proceed with open offers for Fortis Healthcare and Fortis Malar Hospitals. IHH's Northern TK Venture may acquire up to 197,025,660 Fortis shares, equal to 26.10% of expanded voting capital, and 4,894,308 Fortis Malar shares, equal to 26.11% of its voting capital. The wider deal includes 235,294,117 new Fortis shares subscribed by an IHH subsidiary.
Open offers may increase IHH's stake and attract trading activity. Offer price, timing and shareholder response will drive near-term share-price volatility.
