Rights Issue is a corporate action where a company invites its existing shareholders to apply for additional shares in proportion to their holdings, at a discounted price. For doing so, the company prepares a list of eligible shareholders based on shareholding as on the “Record Date (RD)”.
The eligible shareholders will receive the Rights Entitlement (RE) in their demat account before the opening of Rights Issue.
The Rights Entitlements (REs) are not like ordinary equity shares of a company but are a type of coupon/voucher (referred to as rights entitlements) that can be used to apply for the rights shares. Rights entitlements are offered to shareholders as a ratio to the number of securities held on this record date. A shareholder may refuse to apply/subscribe to the rights issue and just let the 'right' lapse. Application for a rights issue shall be made only through ASBA facility.
Alternatively, the shareholder can renounce the rights entitlement (REs) in favour of another person at a price through following modes :

- If you wish to participate in the Rights Issue, you will have to make an application to the company and pay requisite application money.
- If you do not wish to participate in the Rights Issue, you can renounce (or sell) the REs before the issue closing date.
