What is a Rights Issue?
A rights issue is an offer made by a listed company to its existing shareholders to buy additional shares of the company at a price typically below the prevailing market price, in proportion to their existing holdings. The ratio (e.g. 1:4 means one new share for every four held) and the issue price are announced in advance.
You can either subscribe to your rights entitlement (apply via ASBA / UPI through your broker), let the entitlement lapse, or — if the rights are tradeable — sell the entitlement (REs) on the exchange before the issue closes. Subscription typically requires you to be on the company's register on the record date.
