UNAPPETISING PROSPECTS
The issuing company has the unappetizing prospect of losing grip on the offered company then the foreign investment may have back off.
As the shares that they get can best be uploaded in the Indian stock exchange whereas in case of FCCB the existing possibility of exchanging if for ADR/GDR
ADR/GDR enjoys two-way fungibility.
