i.    The Buy-back will help the Company to   return surplus cash to    its members holding equity shares broadly in proportion to their shareholding, thereby, enhancing the overall return to   members; 

ii.    The Buy-back, which is   being implemented through the Tender Offer route as prescribed under the Buy-back Regulations, would  involve allocation  of  higher  of  number of  shares as  per their entitlement or  15% of the number of    shares to  be bought back,  reserved for the small shareholders. The Company  believes that this reservation of    15% for small shareholders would benefit a large number of    public shareholders, who would get classified as "small shareholder; 

iii.    The Buy-back would help in   improving return on equity, by reduction in   the equity base, thereby leading to   long term increase in  shareholders' value; and
