एएमजी मीडिया नेटवर्क्स (एएमएनएल) की सहायक कंपनी विश्वप्रधान कमर्शियल प्राइवेट ...

हिस्सेदारी खरीदने की खबरें सामने आने के बाद एनडीटीवी की न्यूज वेबसाइट पर इसे लेकर एक खबर लगाई गई। इस खबर के मुताबिक अदाणी समूह की ओर से इस डील के लिए एनडीटीवी और उसके फाउंडर-प्रमोटर्स से कोई चर्चा नहीं की गई। एनडीटीवी की खबर के मुताबिक वीसीपीएल ने 2009-10 के एक ऋण समझौते के आधार पर नोटिस दिया है। ये सब एनडीटीवी के संस्थापकों और कंपनी की सहमति के बिना किया गया है। जबकि, एक दिन पहले ही एनडीटीवी ने शेयर बाजार को यह सूचना दी थी कि उसकी शेयरहोल्डिंग्स में कोई बदलाव नहीं किया गया है। आरआरपीआरएच को केवल दो दिन में अपनी 29.18 फीसदी हिस्सेदारी को वीसीपीएल को सौंपने को कहा गया है। देश के सबसे बड़े व्यापारिक संगठनों में से एक अदाणी समूह है। इस समूह के एक प्रमुख कंपनी अदाणी एंटरप्राइजेज लिमिटेड है। एमएनएल यानी एमएमजी मीडिया नेटवर्क्स लिमिटेड अदाणी एंटरप्राइजेज लिमिटेड की सहायक कंपनी है। इस कंपनी में अदाणी समूह की सौ फीसदी हिस्सेदारी है। अदाणी समूह की सहायक कंपनी एमएनएल की भी एक सहायक कंपनी है। एमएनएल की भी एक सहायक कंपनी है विश्वप्रधान कमर्शियल प्राइवेट लिमिटेड (वीसीपीएल)। इसी ने ही एनडीटीवी में परोक्ष रूप से हिस्सेदारी खरीदने का एलान किया है। हिस्सेदारी की परोक्ष खरीदारी की बात क्यों की जा रही है? महज तीन महीने 29 दिन पहले मीडिया बिजनेस में उतरे गौतम अदाणी जल्द ही देश के मशहूर न्यूज चैनल एनडीटीवी के मालिक बन सकते हैं। दरअसल, उनके समूह की मीडिया कंपनी एएमजी मीडिया नेटवर्क्स (एएमएनएल) की सहायक कंपनी विश्वप्रधान कमर्शियल प्राइवेट लिमिटेड ने परोक्ष रूप से एनडीटीवी समूह की 29.18 फीसदी हिस्सेदारी खरीदने की प्रक्रिया शुरू कर दी है। कंपनी जल्द ही एनडीटीवी में 26 फीसदी हिस्सेदारी और खरीदने की भी कोशिश करेगी। इस हिस्सेदारी को खरीदने के लिए अदाणी समूह करीब 493 करोड़ रुपये खर्च करेगा। इसके लिए कंपनी ने खुला ऑफर दिया है। इस पूरी डील पर एनडीटीवी की ओर से कहा गया है कि उन्हें इस बारे में नोटिस मिला है। लेकिन, इस मसले पर कंपनी से पहले कोई चर्चा नहीं की गई। एएमएनएल क्या है?

“The NDTV founders and the company would like to make it clear that this exercise of rights by VCPL was executed without any input from, conversation with, or consent of NDTV founders. RRPR was set up in August 2005 with the objective to acquire and hold controlling interests in shares or loan capital of the group and associate companies. In its statement, NDTV said the rights were “executed without any input from, conversation with, or consent of the NDTV founders”. Vishvapradhan Commercial Private Limited (VCPL), a wholly owned subsidiary of AMG Media Networks Limited (AMNL), on Tuesday exercised its rights to acquire 99.5% stake in RRPR Holding Private (RRPRH), a promoter group company of NDTV. This will result in AMNL indirectly acquiring a 29.18% stake in NDTV, which is currently being held by RRPRH.VCPL holds warrants of RRPRH which entitles it to convert them into 99.99% stake in RRPR.AMNL is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gautam Adani-led Adani Group has set the ball rolling to acquire a controlling stake of 55.18% in New Delhi Television (NDTV).The move is being seen as a hostile takeover bid as NDTV was swift to make a statement to the stock exchanges that “there was no consent from its founders for the exercise of rights by VCPL”.

Adanis mount NDTV takeover bid (Telegraph India)

Group intends to make an open offer to acquire another 26 per cent in the news organisation at a price of Rs 294 per share.

SEPL had the right to purchase 11.01 per cent of equity shares of NDTV from RRPR at a call option price of Rs 214.65 per share. “This acquisition (NDTV) is a significant milestone in the journey of AMNL’s goal to pave the path of new age media across platforms. An equity call option confers a right to buy shares in the company without an obligation to actually do so. With its leading position in news and its strong and diverse reach across genres and geographies, NDTV is the most suitable broadcast and digital platform to deliver on our vision. They individually and through their company, RRPR Holding Private Limited, continue to hold 61.45 per cent of the total paid-up share capital of NDTV.” This marks the group’s second purchase in the media segment. The attractiveness of this 10-year loan was that it carried no interest. The group intends to make an open offer to acquire another 26 per cent in NDTV at a price of Rs 294 per share, aggregating to Rs 492.81 crore. RRPR, which owns 29.18 per cent of NDTV, has been told to transfer within two days all its equity shares to VCPL.” It is not clear when the Adanis took control of this entity. The open offer price is at an almost 20 per cent discount to the current market price. Shareholders of NDTV may not bite the weak bait.

However, it is not clear how that happened since Vishvapradhan had returned only Rs 50 crore of the Rs 400 crore loan. The records also suggest NDTV never returned the loan it took from Vishvapradhan. In fact, Shinao, at the time, was a fully owned subsidiary of Reliance Industrial Investments and Holdings Limited. On Tuesday, AMG Media Networks Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Adani Enterprises, bought 100% of the equity stakes in Vishvapradhan Commercial Private Limited for Rs 113.74 crore. In 2012, though, Vishvapradhan’s ownership changed, statutory statements filed by the company with the corporate affairs ministry show. Led by billionaire Gautam Adani, who is believed to be close to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Adani Group also said it will launch an open offer to buy another 26% of NDTV’s shares.

However, Gupta notes that while the promoters could potentially file an open offer of their own to counter Adani’s takeover attempts, Adani at a 29 per cent stake has every incentive to put a counter to the promoter’s attempts as well. However, Adani may still be able to acquire a nearly 50 per cent stake in NDTV even if the open offer fails by buying oyt stakes held by institutional investors and other private shareholders who may have indorect links with Adani group. Speaking with BusinessLine, Shriram Subramanian, MD of InGovern Research Services, a corporate governance advisory firm, said, “Shareholders are unlikely to tender their shares at ₹294, as shares are trading upwards of ₹380 at the moment. NDTV’s public shareholders are unlikely to tender shares to Adani on the proposed open offer price of ₹294, say proxy advisory firms. Market watchers said that these could be indrectly linked to the Adani group. This was after Adani made a hostile bid to control NDTV by acquiring a 29.18 per cent stake in NDTV through a company called (VCPL), which has lent ₹403 crore to NDTV’s founder promoters, Prannoy Roy and Radhika Roy.
