Mumbai/Kolkata:  Indian billionaire Gautam Adani-led group's flagship firm Adani Enterprises Limited on Thursday proposed to open on Jan 27 its further public offering (“FPO”), aggregating up to Rs. 20,000 crore issued, on a partly paid basis.

The FPO comprises partly paid-up equity shares of face value of Re. 1 each (“FPO Equity Shares”) of the Company for cash at a price (including a premium) per FPO equity share by way of a fresh issue (the “Offer”).

The Offer includes a reservation of FPO equity shares aggregating up to Rs. 50 crore for subscription by eligible employees not exceeding 5 percent of the post-Offer paid-up equity capital (“Employee Reservation Portion”).

The Price Band for the FPO Offer has been fixed from Rs. 3,112 to Rs. 3,276 per FPO Equity Share. Bids can be made for a minimum of 4 FPO Equity Shares and in multiples of 4 FPO Equity Shares thereafter.

The Anchor Investor Bidding Date shall be one Working Day prior to the Bid/Offer Opening Date.

When Will FPO Offer Close:

The FPO Offer will close on Jan 31

UPI mandate end time and date shall be at 5.00 p.m. on the Bid/ Offer Closing Date.       

The Retail Portion of the offer will be at a discount of Rs. 64 per FPO Equity Share for retail investors and such discount should be considered as part of the red herring prospectus dated January 18, 2023 (“RHP”) and should be read in conjunction with the RHP.

Adani Enterprises proposes to utilise Rs. 10,869 crore of the Net Proceeds of the FPO towards funding capital expenditure requirements of some of its subsidiaries in relation to certain projects of the green hydrogen ecosystem; improvement works of certain existing airport facilities; and construction of greenfield expressway.

Adani Enterprises also proposes to utilise Rs. 4,165 crore to repay in full or part, certain borrowings of the Company and three of its subsidiaries, namely, Adani Airport Holding Limited, Adani Road Transport Limited, and Mundra Solar Limited. The rest will be utilised towards general corporate purposes.

The FPO Equity Shares offered through this Red Herring Prospectus are proposed to be listed on the Stock Exchanges.

The Book Running Lead Managers (“BRLMs”) to the Offer are ICICI Securities Limited, Jefferies India Private Limited, SBI Capital Markets Limited, Axis Capital Limited, BOB Capital Markets Limited, IDBI Capital Markets & Securities Limited, JM Financial Limited, IIFL Securities Limited, Monarch Networth Capital Limited and Elara Capital (India) Private Limited.

The Offer is being made in terms of Regulation 155 of the SEBI ICDR Regulations. The Offer is being made in accordance with Regulation 129(1) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations and through a book building process wherein not more than 50 percent of the Net Offer shall be allotted on a proportionate basis to Qualified Institutional Buyers (“QIBs”, and such portion, the “QIB Portion”).

The Company in consultation with the Book Running Lead Managers, may allocate up to 60 percent of the QIB Portion to Anchor Investors on a discretionary basis in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations (“Anchor Investor Portion”), out of which at least one-third shall be reserved for allocation to domestic Mutual Funds only, subject to valid Bids being received from the domestic Mutual Funds at or above the Anchor Investor Allocation Price, in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations. In the event of under-subscription, or non-allocation in the Anchor Investor Portion, the balance FPO Equity Shares shall be added to the portion of the QIB Portion less the number of Equity Shares Allotted to the Anchor Investors (“Net QIB Portion”).

Further, 5 percent of the Net QIB Portion shall be available for allocation on a proportionate basis to Mutual Funds only, and the remainder of the QIB Portion shall be available for allocation on a proportionate basis to all QIB Bidders other than Anchor Investors, including Mutual Funds, subject to valid Bids being received at or above the Offer Price.
