The demerger would entail several benefits such as a separate and independent listing of the MDF business leading to unlocking of shareholder value for Greenply shareholders. It provides an opportunity for investors who wish to invest only in the MDF business of Greenply. It leads to segregation of various businesses with different risk and return profiles. It entails a better focused growth strategy and capital allocation for each of the businesses. It stimulates economies in business operations and optimal utilization of resources.” ENDS
