Supernet approves merger with Supernet Technologies Limited As per the statement, under the capital reorganisation approved as part of the Scheme of Arrangement, STL will capitalise its accumulated profits and issue 5.5 million fully paid-up ordinary shares of Rs10 each to its existing shareholders in the ratio of 11 shares for every one share held.
