Sir could you please explain me the Mandatory bid rule and break through rule with example.Thanks
If a shareholder or a concert party (group of shareholders) acquires more than 30% of a company it must offer to buy the remaining shares on terms as good as its most recent purchases.
The breakthrough rule allows pre-bid defences to be removed if the potential acquirer achieves a certain percentage of the business. However most countries have opted out of this rule so I would not worry about it.
