Buyback of Shares

Buyback of Shares is a corporate action where a company repurchases its own shares from existing shareholders. It helps reduce the number of outstanding shares, improve financial ratios, and return surplus cash to investors. Buybacks also signal management’s confidence in the company’s future performance and value.
