Indian real estate developer Shriram Properties has fixed a price band of INR113–INR118 per share for its initial stake sale to the public, which will open for subscription on 8 December, according to a press statement issued by the firm.
The company would raise up to INR6bn ($79.6m) at the upper end of the price band through an initial public offering (IPO).
The IPO comprises a fresh issue of shares of up to INR2.5bn and an Offer For Sale (OFS) totalling up to INR3.5bn.

The IPO also includes a reservation of up to INR30m for employees. The firm would also look at raising funds from private investors a day prior to the IPO.
Proceeds plan
The firm, a part of the south Indian city of Chennai-based business conglomerate Shriram Group, intends to use INR2bn of the proceeds to repay debt of the company and its subsidiaries. A yet-to-be decided amount would be used for general business purposes.
For the financial year ended 31 March 2021, Shriram Properties posted a net loss of INR681.78m, compared with a net loss of INR863.9m recorded during the same period a year ago. During the period under review, the real estate developer’s revenue from operations fell to INR4.32bn from INR5.72bn recorded a year ago.
