Where your money goes
Only the fresh issue reaches the company. The offer for sale is existing shareholders selling their own stock — that money goes to them, not the business.
A red herring prospectus is filed before the price is fixed, so it states share counts rather than rupee amounts. stated in prospectus. Checked: exchange issue size Rs1000 Cr vs derived Rs1000 Cr (0.0% apart).
What the fresh money funds
The stated uses of the net proceeds, from the prospectus’s Objects of the Issue table. Only the fresh issue funds these — the offer-for-sale money goes to the selling shareholders above.
As stated in the prospectus. “General corporate purposes” is the part with no committed use; SEBI caps it at 25% of the issue.
