Jain Resource Recycling Pvt. Ltd., a prominent metal recycling company, has submitted a draft red herring prospectus for its much-awaited ₹20 billion Initial Public Offering (IPO). The issue consists of a new issue of equity shares of ₹5 billion and an offer for sale by existing promoters and shareholders of ₹1.5 billion. The IPO will be handled by leading book-running lead managers such as ICICI Securities and Motilal Oswal Investment Advisors.
The new money raised will presumably be used to finance the growth plans of the company and strengthen its operations in its 20-country presence. In the meantime, the offer for sale provides existing shareholders an opportunity to partly monetize their holdings. The strategic emphasis by Jain Resource Recycling on eco-friendly recycling and production has made it a major player in the global market, so this IPO is a major occurrence in India's corporate scene.
Shares of the company are set to list on prominent stock exchanges, and the reservations and proposed discounts of its employees add greater allure. It is a major milestone for Jain Resource Recycling towards deepening market reach and influencing innovation in recycling.
