What Is An Open Offer Buyback?

A share buyback allows a listed company to use its capital to buy its own outstanding shares from the secondary stock market. The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) announced the reintroduction of open market share buyback on June 19, 2026. Now, listed companies will be able to undertake share buyback through the open market offer route from August 1, 2026. The reintroduction provides regular retail shareholders an additional avenue to sell their shares directly on stock exchanges during the active buyback period, thus enhancing transparent market prices.
