Bandhan Bank to launch up to Rs4,473 crore Initial Public offering (IPO) on March 15,2018

Bandhan Bank Ltd will launch an up to Rs4,473 crore Initial Public offering (IPO) of shares on 15 March, in what will be the biggest ever initial share sale by a local bank.

The Kolkata-based bank and its shareholders will be selling up to 119.3 million shares, or about 10% of the post-issue share capital of the bank, in a price range of Rs370-375 each in the IPO, according to a prospectus and public notice on Thursday March 08,2018

The bank will sell up to 97.7 million new shares in the IPO that will close for subscription on 19 March. International Finance Corp, part of the World Bank Group, and IFC FIG will sell 21.6 million shares.

Bandhan, formerly a microfinance company specialising in small-value loans, and IDFC Bank were the only two companies to win bank permits from the Reserve Bank of India in 2014, in the first bank licensing process in a decade. Bandhan Bank started operations in August 2015.

Kotak Mahindra Capital, Axis Capital, Goldman Sachs, JM Financial and J.P. Morgan are the banks managing the IPO.
