Today, the much-awaited demerger of ITC Hotels from its parent company ITC was finally executed, with ITC shares starting to trade without its hotels business included. Analysts predict a fair price of Rs 264 per share for ITC Hotels, with shareholder eligibility for its shares being decided based on holdings of ITC shares as of today. The newly demerged ITC Hotels will soon be listed on the bourses, with Nomura expecting a listing price in the range of Rs 200-300 per share. In the meantime, ITC Hotels will remain a part of stock indices where ITC is a constituent, and its listing may be postponed in case of trading circuit limits being hit. This corporate action is expected to significantly impact shareholders of ITC, a prominent blue-chip stock in the Indian market.
