The existing company Max India will be renamed Max Financial services and the other two businesses will be listed post the demerger.

The  Max India board today approved the company's corporate restructuring plan that will result in a three-way split. The existing company Max India will be renamed Max Financial Services and the other two businesses will be listed post the demerger.

The first resulting company post the demerger will be named Max India and will manage the investments in health & allied business. The second company will be named Max Ventures and will house the investment activity in the group's manufacturing arm.

The three separate business verticals would look into life insurance, health and allied businesses, and manufacturing industries.

Further the promoter of the Max India Analjit Singh announced his intention to make voluntary open offer to buy up to an additional 34.5 per centstake in Max Ventures and
Industries Ltd which will be listed post the demerger of Max India.

The company's cash reserves of Rs 605 crore will be split between the three listed companies and Max India will sell its clinical research business for USD 1.5 million to Canadian company JSS Medical.

Here's how the stocks will be split:

An investor will get one share in the demerged Max India for every share held. For every five Max India shares held, an investor will get one share in Max Ventures.

The appointed date for the demerger is April 1, 2015.

Nidhesh Jain of EspĂ­rito Santo believes the demerger is a positive on many fronts. He believes the demerger will allow investors get exposure to pure life insurance play as Max India is the only listed life insurance company.

Furthermore, he believes the divestment of Max' clinical research business is important as nobody on the street was giving any valuation to that entity and that will change now.

And lastly, Jain believes the demerger assures investors on the capital allocation strategy of the company.

"Post this demerger they deliver a clear segregation among these three major verticals. This will allay the investors fears. So, investor who wants to take exposure to life insurance can now take the exposure which was not available earlier," he adds.
