Abstract

The Share Repurchases or Buyback of shares is the repurchase of its own shares by a company. The buyback of shares is increasingly popular in countries such as the US, UK, Hong Kong, and India. The buyback of shares is allowed in India due to the Buyback of Securities Regulation Act 1998. From then on many listed Indian Private and Public companies made the announcement of different share buyback programs. In fact, these buyback programs have become very popular corporate action, especially in the last five years. This paper conducted the study to review the literature available on share buybacks for the period of 1998-2016.
