Vinyl Chemicals India Ltd has informed BSE that with reference to the earlier announcement dated March 21, 2007, the Company had conveyed that the Board of Directors of the company had approved, in principle, the Demerger of the manufacturing unit at Mahad into Pidilite Industries Ltd.

At that Board Meeting, the Company had appointed an implementation Committee consisting of some of the Directors with a view to carrying forward the process, formalities, etc. required for such Demerger. That Committee appointed Valuers for recommending a fair ratio for allotment of shares pursuant to such Demerger as also appointed Law Firms, etc. to deal with the matter expeditiously.

At a joint meeting of the two implementation Committees of the Company and Pidilite Industries Ltd, followed by the Joint Board Meeting of these two Companies, the Report of Valuation as also the draft Scheme of Demerger have been, after consideration, approved.

- In so far as it relates to "small shareholders" of the Company, (a small shareholder means a Member holding less than 501 Equity Shares) the Scheme provides for an option for such small shareholder being allotted 1 (one) 6% Cumulative Redeemable of Preference Share in Pidilite Industries Ltd of Rs 10/- each treated as fully paid for every Equity share held by a small shareholder in the Company.
